German national carrier Lufthansa is to inaugurate a three times daily service to the Scottish city of Aberdeen from its Frankfurt hub. The flights will commence on October 30 at the start of the Northern Winter schedules and will be operated using a two-class, 100-seat Embraer 190 of one its regional partners.

A full feature and analysis on this route launch will appear in this week’s issue of The HUB, available on Thursday 30th June – one day earlier than normal due to travel commitments to this year’s Routes Africa event in Bamako, Mali.
