Most popular holiday destinations and challenges
The most popular holiday destinations from Dresden are Antalya and Mallorca, served by Eurowings and Ryanair. Lufthansa's frequent connection to Frankfurt am Main and Munich, up to four times a day, is a big plus for travelers. But air transport also has its pitfalls. European aviation faces challenges, as the analysis shows aerointernational shows.
In the summer of 2024, flight disruptions became a serious issue for travelers. The disruption rates in Germany should not be underestimated, as up to 61% of flights were affected.
