After a thorough assessment of all currently available information on the Coronavirus, Lufthansa Group has decided to continue to extend the suspension of flights between Germany, Switzerland, Austria and mainland China by Lufthansa, Swiss and Austrian Airlines until 24 April. Flights to Tehran will remain suspended until 30 April.

Additionally, Lufthansa Group airlines are reducing additional frequencies in their route network to and from Hong Kong and Seoul (Korea).
