SEPANG, Oct 27 — Lufthansa Airlines has launched its nonstop service between Kuala Lumpur and Frankfurt, Germany, restoring a direct air link between the two cities after nearly a decade.
Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing said the service would strengthen Malaysia’s air connectivity with Germany and the wider European market, while creating greater opportunities for tourism, business and people-to-people exchange.
“This new connection comes at an opportune time as Malaysia advances the Visit Malaysia 2026–2027 campaign.
“Strong and reliable air connectivity is fundamental to our efforts to attract more international visitors and ensure that Malaysia remains accessible and competitive in the global tourism market,” he said at the “Welcoming Reception of the Inaugural Flight of Lufthansa from Frankfurt to Kuala Lumpur” event at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) yesterday.
