Tickets are very cheap for many dates which suggests lack of demand so I just hope the service is a success. Far better to have a flag carrier on the route than EasyJet or Jet2 for connections and the rarity of inbound passengers.
Yes, and as I have reminded before, skis/boards go free on Lufty on anything but Lite fares, and that is a major saving compared to EZY, Jet2, BA, KLM, etc. Current car hire rates on the usual comparative sites are generally way less at MUC than GVA.
