My guests for this episode are Dr. Andre Schulz, General Manager, South and Eastern Africa at the Lufthansa Group and Marco Götz, Chief Revenue Officer at Eurowings Discover. 

Together we discuss the launch of a new leisure carrier from the Lufthansa stable that launched operations to Mombasa and Zanzibar on 25th July 2021. 

We discuss:

  • Why Eurowings Discover was created and the gap it aims to fill?
  • Why Mombasa and Zanzibar?
  • Where next?
  • How big a part cargo plays in the operation?
  • The types of destinations the carrier is looking to serve
  • What Discover is looking for in an approach from a destination/ airport
  • The fleet
