Tblisi, Yerevan and Timisoara new on Lufthansa’s timetable
Lufthansa further extends route network in Eastern Europe

Lufthansa is further extending its route network in the direction of
Eastern Europe. As of the beginning of June 2005, Tbilisi, the
capital of Georgia, the Armenian capital of Yerevan as well as
Timisoara in Romanian Transylvania will be added to the Lufthansa
timetable. The three destinations will be served from Munich.

The introduction of the new services takes into account the
above-average market growth in Eastern Europe and the corresponding
potential in these markets.

As of 2 June, Yerevan will be served on Mondays, Thursdays and
Sundays by an Airbus A319 or A320. The flight will depart from Munich
at 21.10 hrs. The return flight will leave Yerevan on Monday, Tuesday
and Friday at 4.50 hrs. As approximately half of the total of around
8 million Armenians live abroad, the Armenians are characteristically
frequent travellers. The country’s main branches of industry are
mining, IT and real estate.

Thanks to its geographical proximity and good traffic connections
with the EU as well as a good infrastructure, Timisoara in Romanian
Transylvania is registering the highest investment growth of European
companies in Europe. As of 1st June, Lufthansa will be flying six
times a week, from Monday to Saturday, from Munich to Timisoara with
a Canadair regional jet, departing at 10.10 hrs. The return flights
will leave Timisoara at 13.25 hrs.

As of 5th June, Lufthansa will fly with an A 319 to Tbilisi in
Georgia on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays at 21.10 hrs. The return
flights are scheduled for Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 3.55 hrs.

Attractive introductory prices will be offered on the three new
routes which can already now be booked. The flight from Munich to
Timisoara and back will be available for 230 Euro, to Yerevan for 504
Euro and to Tbilisi for 508 Euro. For these special prices the
outward flight must be made no later than 16th or 17th July. The
return flight must be made by 23rd July.

The prices are valid for return flights in the Economy Class, and
include taxes and charges when booking an electronic ticket via
The prices are each subject to the Lufthansa
ticket service charge of ten Euro.
