With the start of the winter schedule on October 25 (in tandem with the switchover from daylight saving time), a total of 80 airlines will operate from Frankfurt Airport (FRA), serving 231 destinations in 92 countries.* Offering some 3,400 departures and around 650,000 seats each week, FRA remains Germany's most important international aviation hub.** The winter schedule will run until March 27, 2027.

Europe: More services to London
In Europe, German carrier Condor (DE) will continue its service to London-Gatwick (LGW), with up to three daily flights during the winter schedule. The route was launched in the summer. Likewise, DAT (DX) will continue its summer service to Linz (LNZ) in Austria during winter, with up to three daily flights.

In North Africa, services to Morocco are expanding. Discover Airlines (4Y), a member of the Lufthansa Group, will offer winter flights to Agadir (AGA) for the first time, connecting this coastal city with Frankfurt twice weekly. In addition, Royal Air Maroc (AT) will extend its seasonal service to Nador (NDR) to year-round operations.

Middle East: Air Arabia – a new airline at FRA
Frankfurt is welcoming a new airline from the Middle East: Air Arabia (G9). Starting December 15, Air Arabia will begin daily services to its home base in Sharjah (SHJ) in the United Arab Emirates. Earlier, on November 4, Condor will launch a new daily service to Abu Dhabi (AUH). The flights will be offered in partnership with Etihad Airways (EY) and will continue to Bangkok (BKK). From December, Etihad itself will provide an additional daily service to AUH. This means passengers at FRA will have the option of up to three daily flights to Abu Dhabi.

Condor will also operate daily flights to Tel Aviv (TLV) over the winter, continuing a service launched in the summer.

Asia: Lufthansa flies to Kuala Lumpur five times per week
Travelers heading to Asia can take advantage of Lufthansa's new service to Kuala Lumpur (KUL). LH is adding the Malaysian capital to its route network, offering non-stop flights five times per week from the start of the winter schedule. Air China (CA) will continue its summer service to Beijing-Daxing (PKX), supplementing existing flights to Beijing Capital Airport (PEK). China Southern (CZ) will also continue serving Ürümqi (URC) twice weekly as a stopover on its service to Guangzhou (CAN). Air India (AI) is also increasing frequencies to Delhi (DEL) and Mumbai (BOM) for the winter schedule, adding one weekly flight to each destination. This brings the total to 13 weekly flights to Delhi and six to Mumbai.

For Central Asia, Qanot Sharq (HH) and Centrum Air (C6) will continue to provide additional connections to Tashkent (TAS), complementing the existing service offered by Uzbekistan Airways (HY).
