LH is currently planning to dramatically increase longhaul routes out of their second hub, MUC.
from January 12, the MUC-PVG service is being extended to Ghangzhou, to make use of the extensive layover time (7 hours) in PVG, which is due to scheduling reasons.
Beginning March 28, A 2-class A340-300 (ex-Sabena bird) is currently scheduled to fly a daily nonstop to CLT, FN LH 428/LH429 are currently shown in the reservation systems.
The same day, a thrice-weekly flight to PEK with A340-300 is also found in the CRS; JFK, LAX and SFO will be switched to a daily flight again that day.
A new destination would be LH602/LH603, trice weekly service to THR, on A340-300 again
MUC-HKG is to be resumed with three flights a week with A340-300, as is MUC-BOS six times a week with A330-200.
On June 4, LH bases three A340-600 in MUC, which are to fly the services to SFO and PVG(-CAN), the same day MUC-YUL resumes with an ex-Sabena A340-300 flying daily.
The seasonal flights to MIA and JNB will be suspended for the summer, however, the MUC-DXB service is kept three times a week.
Another trice-weekly service is under consideration, which is probably Dehli or Bombay, but there is no info yet on them.
FRA will get two new intercont destinations, and lose one, those are not yet to be made public. My guess is SEA and SAN, I don't know which one goes, probably PHX.
