ITA Airways has moved into the Lufthansa Group terminal areas in Frankfurt and Munich

The next milestone in the integration of ITA Airways into the Lufthansa Group: With the start of the 2025 summer flight schedule today, all ITA Airways flights in Frankfurt and Munich will be handled in the Lufthansa Group terminals. This means that ITA Airways and the other Lufthansa Group airlines are “under one roof” at all the Group's hubs, significantly reducing transfer times for passengers. 

The move at the German hubs last night included the entire ITA Airways handling operation, from check-in, gates, service desks and baggage reclaim. 

In Frankfurt, the Italian airline moved from Terminal 2 to Terminal 1, which is used by the Lufthansa Group. Since ITA Airways will also be flying from gate areas A and B in the future, passengers will benefit from significantly shorter distances and thus shorter transfer times. ITA Airways passengers can also reach the Deutsche Bahn long-distance train station with ICE high-speed train connections quickly and easily from Terminal 1. 

In Munich, ITA Airways moved from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2 and its satellite. This terminal is operated by a joint venture between Lufthansa and Munich Airport. As of today, ITA Airways passengers will therefore be using the terminal that has been awarded five stars by Skytrax multiple times. 

At the other Lufthansa Group hubs in Brussels, Rome, Vienna and Zurich, all Lufthansa Group airlines are already under one roof. For example, there was already a seamless transfer process for customers between SWISS and ITA Airways at Zurich Airport. In addition, the airlines' check-in desks have already been placed next to each other at the majority of jointly served airports in recent weeks.

Dieter Vranckx, Chief Commercial Officer, Lufthansa Group, says: “This move is an important milestone in the integration of ITA Airways into the Lufthansa Group. Our customers will be able to transfer faster and more comfortably thanks to shorter distances and will have more comfort throughout their entire journey. This also includes the shared use of lounges. This integration gives ITA Airways passengers access to the enormous advantages of the Lufthansa Group, with all its premium airlines and a worldwide route network. It also gives passengers more direct access to numerous destinations to the Italian market. In just two months, we have succeeded in offering our passengers a seamless premium travel experience.” 

With the summer flight schedule valid from today, ITA Airways and the Lufthansa Group Airlines are also launching their joint codeshare flights, which have been offered to customers for several weeks. The route networks of ITA Airways and the other network airlines of the Lufthansa Group are now aligned and connected and can therefore be combined in a single booking. Passengers can choose from over 100 new codeshare connections within Europe, operated by both ITA Airways and the Lufthansa Group (Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Air Dolomiti). Lufthansa Group passengers can reach though code-sharing with ITA Airways the Italian airports of Alghero (AHO), Lampedusa (LMP), Pantelleria (PNL) and Reggio Calabria (REG). With a Lufthansa codeshare ticket, passengers can also travel to Tripoli in Libya again. More than 50,000 of these combination tickets have already been sold in the first three weeks.

Reciprocal Lounge access possible with immediate effect 

From today, ITA Airways passengers can also use the approximately 130 lounges of the Lufthansa Group and its partners on their travels. From today, the lounges of ITA Airways are also open to Lufthansa Group passengers from today. Frequent flyers have been benefiting from expanded options since 03 February 2025. Miles & More members can earn and redeem miles and points for their frequent flyer status on all flights operated by ITA Airways. Conversely, Volare customers can also earn and redeem points with Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines and Brussels Airlines.
