Brussels Airlines Launches Nuremberg Route

Brussels Airlines will operate six flights a week between Brussels and Nuremberg from 15 February.

The second largest city of Bavaria and an economic metropolis and important cultural-historical destination was so far not connected to Brussels Airport.

Brussels Airlines continues to expand its network in Germany, adding Nuremberg as a destination as from 15 February only a couple of months after successfully launching flights to Bremen.

The capital of the region Franconia will be connected with Brussels Airport six times a week.

'The new route is very good news for the large number of businessmen, EU officials and lobbyists who so far could not travel between Nuremberg and the European capital,' said Brussels Airlines Chief Commercial Officer Lars Redeligx.

'As from 15 February we will offer them direct flights and smooth connections to other European destinations on all weekdays and on Sunday.'

'We are delighted with the new connection for the winter season. It allows us to respond to the large demand of the local industry in Nuremberg,' explained Dr. Michel Hupe, Director of Nuremberg Airport.

'By connecting the metropolis with the most important European hubs and business centers, Brussels Airlines fills a void,' he stated.

The airline recently relaunched its Belgium-Accra route in Accra.

Brussels Airlines now connects Accra and Brussels four times a week- Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.

It departs Brussels at 11:00 am and arrives in Accra at 16:45pm and departs Accra at 21:40pm and lands at Brussels Airport by 05:25+1.
