OREANDA-NEWS. Lufthansa customers will be able to reach the ski slopes even faster this winter. A new helicopter service from Munich will commence on 1 January 2015. Lufthansa's hub in southern Germany is the perfect departure point to reach the nearby ski resorts as quickly as possible. Whether it's Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Zillertal, KitzbЁ№hel, SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser-Brixental or other resorts in the Alps - as long as there is a helipad on site, customers will be able to choose their own destination. The service can be booked now and will operate until the end of April.

In Munich, Lufthansa customers will be collected directly from their aircraft and looked after by Munich Airport's VIP service. The company HTM Helicopter Travel Munich GmbH will then take them to their desired holiday destination.
