Lufthansa to fly A380 to Houston

GERMANY-Lufthansa will launch Airbus A380 services to Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport next year. The German carrier will upgrade its Frankfurt-Houston route from a Boeing 747-400 to the 526-seat A380 from 1 August 2012.

“As the gateway to Texas’ energy capital, Bush Intercontinental welcomes the A380 as a symbol of Houston's significant role as an international hub,” said Mario Diaz, Director of the Houston Airport System. “I believe the new aircraft is a game changer and is an excellent fit for transatlantic flights between Houston and Germany as Lufthansa expands its service.”

Houston will become the fourth US market served by Lufthansa’s A380.
