Eurowings to DUS dropped between May and Sptember by the looks of it.

sad news but heard it’s due to staffing hopefully it’s back later in the year

One of NCL's oldest routes....used to operate as NCL - AMS - DUS back in the dark ages.....always been a popular destination.

Nice to see Corenden back tomorrow with an ANTALYA via Birmingham flight.

Staffing issues don't seem to have affected the new DUS-OSL route announced this week

[Jamesair1]

As at this morning, Eurowings NCL - DUS 4 x weekly are still bookable on their website throughout the summer.

I wouldn't thank you for that routing (albeit early season)
Who does low-cost double drops?!

Maybe the pax will move over to FRA ?

DUS a route that could move over to FR ?

[Jamesair1]

Maybe LH will introduce Munich ( which they did have planned pre FRA)

It was more than planned, it did operate for a few short weeks before Covid made its impact felt.

DUS

Still bookable up to OCT 23.
Has there been an announcement re stopping this route ?

[GrahamK]

It was missing the other day when I looked but seems to have been reinstated. Even the LH website only had prices of £600 each way

[Jamesair1]

Good news indeed.....not good to lose business routes out of the mix.

DUS has always been an odd one - few other second tier UK airports ever offered it - any idea why it was so popular from NCL?

I’m going to take a guess at the links to the army bases near by.

I've used this route quite a few times over the years. The Dorf is brilliant for a weekend on the lash and is also a magnet for German stag & hen do's. Its also a great base if you want to watch German football with quite a few teams from Bundesliga to 3. Liga within 1-2 hours train journey. Add to that that most Bundesliga tickets include free transport on the day of the game which makes going to games more attractive. Strangely, there's quite a few Germans use this route too. Seems to be a mixture of families and people on buisiness although there used to be a few Germans studying at Sunderland Uni too. Not sure if that's still the case.

How is LH doing at NCL?
It has been thoroughly trashed in the March edition of Which? Travel, close to bottom for short haul and bottom for long haul.
