Air Berlin to start Stansted-Munich service

German carrier Air Berlin has announced that it is to launch flights between Stansted Airport and Munich later this year.

Beginning on November 5th, the new service will include twice-daily flights on weekdays, with the weekends seeing one a day.

The flights will take off from Stansted at 08:20 GMT and 19:15 GMT during the week, while weekend services will depart at 08:20 GMT on Saturday and 19:15 GMT on Sunday.

"Munich is the ninth Air Berlin direct German destination from the UK … This is an important new route which many of our customers have been waiting for," commented Titus Johnson, UK and Ireland country manager for Air Berlin.

The carrier also flies to destinations such as Frankfurt, Zurich, Milan, Barcelona and Dusseldorf from its UK bases.

Last month, the BBC reported that Air Berlin will pull its service between Stansted and Belfast on October 29th.
