Manage episode 516055247 series 3660246
From Hamburg to Buenos Aires – with seven stopovers! That’s what a long-haul Lufthansa flight looked like in the early 1960s. Today, Frankfurt and Munich connect the world seamlessly as global hubs.

Together, they take a fascinating look back at the pioneering days of aviation and reveal how Lufthansa’s route network evolved from a patchwork to a high-tech global system – with insights into data tools, AI-driven planning, and visions for the future. Plus, historian Dr Andreas Greiner offers a glimpse into the airline’s early routes. A journey through 100 years of aviation – and a look ahead to what’s next!
