Starting this spring, Air Berlin will be intensifying its presence in the Holy Land. From summer 2010 onwards, Air Berlin will operate nine non-stop flights a week from Germany to Israel. This brings the pulsating city of Tel Aviv within even easier reach from many areas in Germany. In May a third non-stop flight linking the cities will be added to the existing two direct connections between Tel Aviv and Berlin. From March 2010 Air Berlin passengers from Cologne and Munich will have a choice of two direct flights a week to Tel Aviv.
Two further flights a week from Düsseldorf to Tel Aviv will be included in the schedule from June 2010. There will also be feeder flights from various German cities. Air Berlin is also offering Business Class seats on the flights to Tel Aviv from Berlin, Düsseldorf and Munich. The Business Class service on these routes includes an even greater selection of kosher meals, free seat reservation, 30 kilos free baggage allowance, lounge access, free headsets and a wide selection of German and English newspapers.
"This is the first time that Air Berlin is offering Business Class travel on a medium-haul flight. The enhanced service concept and a total of nine scheduled flights a week between Germany and Israel mean that we can offer our passengers a very attractive product," commented Christoph Debus, Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) Air Berlin.
