Airport increases number of flights by 20 per cent - 55 airlines now flying to 95 destinations

Hamburg Airport launched Friday (October 27, 2023) its 2023/2024 winter flight schedule until March 31, 2024. The airport has increased the number of flights by 20 per cent over the previous year. Fifty-five airlines are now operating direct flights to 95 direct destinations including two new destinations from Hamburg Airport.

New destinations in winter 2023/2024

"Airlines are also looking at stronger regions in the mountains or in the north as well as the usual holiday destinations," said Dirk Behrens, Head of Aviation at Hamburg Airport. Eurowings will operate a new direct flight to Tromsø, Norway  from December 21, 2023 to meet demand for winter and ski resorts. Flights will be available on Thursdays and Sundays. "The good, year-round good connections to major hubs make it easier to reach more distant countries from Hamburg. Passengers have to change once only to reach many unusual places across the globe in addition to a wide range of direct destinations," he stressed. 

Non-stop flights to Klagenfurt and Agadir resume

Eurowings will also operate direct flights direct to Erbil, Iraq on Tuesdays and Sundays from December 19, 2023 this winter. In the run-up to the latest winter flight schedule, Spain's Volotea airline began operating flights to Florence, Bordeaux and Lyon twice a week from Hamburg Airport in early October. All three cities are brand new destinations. Condor has resumed flights to Agadir, Morocco with immediate effect while Austrian Airlines will resume weekly flights from Hamburg to Klagenfurt on January 13, 2023.

Gradual return to pre-pandemic levels 

Hamburg Airport Is Germany's fifth-largest airport and a gateway for the 5.4 million residents of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region. About 1.4 million passengers arrived in Hamburg Airport in September by air. Around 5.3 million passengers passed through the airport in 2021 followed by 11.1 million in 2022. Operations at Hamburg Airport are gradually returning to pre-pandemic levels when passenger numbers came to 17.3 million in 2019.
