Lufthansa launches Munich-Seattle route

German airline Lufthansa has launched a three times weekly A350 service between Munich and Seattle in the USA.


Seattle is its fifth destination on North America's West Coast after San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Vancouver.

Seattle has been voted the 'most liveable city' in the US on multiple occasions. 

With its coastal location and numerous national parks, including the almost 4,400-meter-high Mount Rainier volcano, it offers travellers a great deal of variety.

Thanks to its proximity to Canada, the port and global corporations such as Amazon and Microsoft, the city with 750,000 inhabitants is the economic, scientific and cultural centre of the Pacific northwest region.

The US is the most important long-haul market for Munich Airport, with passenger numbers having exceeded 2019 levels since 2023. 

In May 2024, passenger volumes to the US were already up 20 per cent compared with the same month last year.
