Santastic News: Lufthansa flies to the home of Santa Claus for the first time this winter
Wintertime is Christmas time and anyone who has
always wanted to visit Santa Claus in his “official” hometown now has the
chance to do so non-stop with Lufthansa from Frankfurt. From November 30, 2024,
the airline will be flying twice a week from Frankfurt to Rovaniemi, the
capital of Lapland in northern Finland, for the first time. Rovaniemi is
located on the Arctic Circle and is surrounded by untouched nature. The city is
an ideal starting point for exploring breathtaking natural phenomena such as
the Northern Lights or spectacular cross-country ski resorts.
With the addition of Rovaniemi, Lufthansa is
continuing its success story in Finland. In addition to Helsinki, Oulu,
Kittilä, Ivalou and Kuusamo, it is the sixth Finnish destination for Lufthansa
Airlines.
Lufthansa will also fly from Frankfurt to Chișinău,
the capital of the Republic of Moldova, in winter. This connection was already
launched in summer 2024. Nantes (France) can now also be discovered from Munich
in winter. The destination, which was added in summer, is now also offered in
the cold season.
All new destinations can be booked immediately via
the familiar Lufthansa booking channels.
