TUI fly is expanding offers in the summer and winter timetable
All year round significantly more capacity
TUI fly will provide more capacity at the Paderborn-Lippstadt Airport for the next summer and winter season. In the summer timetable 2019, around 160,000 places are available for trips to Spain, Greece and Egypt, an increase of 60 percent over the previous year. Through the use of larger aircraft, seat capacity offered in the 2019/2020 winter timetable will increase by 21 percent to around 45,000.
In the summer timetable from May 2019, the Portuguese airline White Air, a proven partner of TUI fly, will take over the flights at its home port with an Airbus A321. The aircraft, which seats 215 passengers, starts under the TUI fly flight number (X3) and with TUI branding to and from PAD.
"When we resumed flights ourselves in November last year, we had promised growth for the summer from Paderborn-Lippstadt. We are now implementing this with an even larger aircraft, "explains Oliver Lackmann, Managing Director of TUIfly GmbH. Mallorca complements the offers to Heraklion, Kos, Rhodes, Hurghada, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Tenerife.
In the winter timetable 2019/20, the destinations Fuerteventura, Tenerife and Gran Canaria as well as Hurghada, which can also be reached with TUI fly in the current winter, are served. The Canary Islands and the Egyptian seaside resort on the Red Sea remain sunny alternatives to winter weather in Germany.
"The destinations offered are enjoying year-round increasing popularity among travelers at Paderborn-Lippstadt Airport. That is why we are particularly pleased that TUI fly has once again significantly expanded its capacities and continues to focus on growth at its home port, "says Dr. med. Marc Cezanne, Managing Director of Flughafen Paderborn / Lippstadt GmbH.
All TUI fly flights from PAD are now bookable at the travel agency and online.
