Routes online today disclosed that Lufthansa’s low-cost subsidiary Eurowings plans to expand its operations from its base in Pristina over the coming weeks with the launch of three new seasonal routes: Bremen in Germany, Brussels South Charleroi in Belgium, and Malmo in Sweden.
Eurowings opened a base at Kosovo’s capital Pristina during summer 2019. The three additions will take the number of destinations served by Eurowings from Pristina International this summer to ten, seven of which are in Germany.
Bremen will be served once weekly route from 30 June, in addition to the existing German destinations Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Hannover, Munich and Stuttgart.
One weekly flight to Brussels South Charleroi will start on 29 June, in competition with TUI fly Belgium which serves the Pristina route from Brussels Airport, while Malmo will be served twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays from 28 June. The routes are scheduled to operate through mid-September.
