Lufthansa's demand to increase flights between India and Germany, said limited traffic damages both countries
Germany's Lufthansa Group provides aviation services with various European airline brands including Swiss, Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines.
New Delhi. Aviation major Lufthansa Group CEO Carsten Spohr said on Sunday that restricting air traffic between India and Germany is affecting the economies of both the countries and Lufthansa Group is looking forward to getting more flights between the two countries from the Indian government. Eagerly waiting. Indian aviation regulator DGCA has allowed Lufthansa to operate only 10 weekly flights from India to Germany at present. This was done after the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in September 2020 accused the airline of being the beneficiary of "unequal distribution" of traffic.
Spohr told the media on the first day of the 77th Annual General Meeting of the International Air Transportation Association (IATA), "The first thing we need now (between India and Germany), and the traffic, should be to 'open the skies' as before. , because I think, right now, we are blocking trade between the economies of India and Germany by not allowing enough passengers to move around." "So it is hurting both the economies because both the economies are dependent on imports and exports," he said. Spohr said the governments of Germany and Switzerland are in constant talks with the Indian government for "additional flights".
IATA members include approximately 290 airlines from around the world, and these members account for 82 percent of global air traffic. Spohr also said that at present, there are no international flights operating between India and Switzerland and expressed hope that services between the two countries will resume soon. Germany's Lufthansa Group provides aviation services with various European airline brands including Swiss, Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines. Scheduled international passenger flights in India are suspended with effect from March 23, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, India, along with around 28 countries, including Germany, has allowed special flights under an "air bubble" arrangement.
