Lufthansa says the expansion is in response to “dynamic economic development” in the country. Pune is a centre for the information technology, biochemistry and automotive industries and has strong German business links.
PrivatAir provides all-business flights on other Lufthansa routes including services to Newark, Chicago and Dubai.
