Operations for Lufthansa Private Jet Marked New Record Highs in 2006

In 2006, the number of flights operated by Lufthansa Private Jet rose by 13 percent. Up to ten private aircraft were booked daily during the year. The highest demand accounting for about 60 percent of the total came from point-to-point connections to around 1,000 destinations in Europe and the Russian Federation.

But the number of private jet flights offered in combination with long-haul services through the Frankfurt, Munich and Zurich hubs has also increased significantly since mid-2006. Customer satisfaction scoring over 90 percent shows how positively customers are responding to the Lufthansa Private Jet service.

An early accord inked with NetJets is now being extended for a further five-year term and cooperation intensified with the private jet provider.

From now on, more jets will be on call, daily, in order to accommodate increased demand for the Lufthansa Private Jet service. In future, the Falcon 2000, which seats up to ten passengers in comfort, will also be available to customers daily.
