Lufthansa Group’s newest airline Eurowings Discover left Frankfurt Airport on July 24, departing on its inaugural flight (4Y134). Operated by an Airbus 330-200 aircraft, passengers traveled from Frankfurt to Mombasa and, after a stopover of about one hour, continued onward to Zanzibar.
The Lufthansa Group’s new leisure airline has been granted its Air Operator Certificate (AOC) by the German Federal Aviation Authority on June 16 this year and will be commencing flight operations this summer as planned under the airline’s own flight code “4Y”.
In addition to the sunny destinations Mombasa and Zanzibar, Eurowings Discover will be flying to Punta Cana from August 9 and to Windhoek from August 10. On September 30, the airline will start operating from Frankfurt to Las Vegas and from October 1 to the dream island of Mauritius. Bridgetown (November 1), Cancún (November 1), Varadero (November 2) and Montego Bay (November 3) will also be added in the winter flight schedule.
