Lufthansa resuming flights to Tripoli

01.02.12

Lufthansa is resuming flights to Tripoli on 2 February. The Libyan capital will be served thrice weekly – on Mondays, Thursday and Sundays – from Frankfurt.

Flight LH1312, operated by an Airbus A319, will depart from Frankfurt in the morning hours on those days, landing in Tripoli three hours later. The return flight as LH 1313 will depart from Tripoli in the afternoon.  Last year Lufthansa temporarily suspended flights to and from Libya because of the political unrest in the country.

Flights to and from Tripoli can be booked online at www.lufthansa.com or via the Lufthansa Call Center in Germany on 01805 805 805 (calls made within the German landline network cost €0.14/min; calls from mobile networks will be charged a maximum of €0.42/min.). Customers can also book their flights through Lufthansa-designated travel agencies or at Lufthansa sales counters at airports.
