The flights are part of Eurowings' significantly expanded range of attractive holiday destinations in the 2021 summer flight schedule and complement the existing Eurowings connections to the popular holiday island of Majorca and to Split. Further first flights are scheduled for the coming days to Naples, Heraklion and Kavala. Eurowings will take off to the island of Rhodes on 2 July.

 „BVB Mannschafts-Airbus“ took off to Alicante fully booked

As part of its expanded summer programme, Eurowings is now stationing a second aircraft in the Ruhr metropolis. In particular, the "BVB Mannschafts-Airbus" - a photo motif known throughout Europe due to its special black and yellow livery - will be a regular guest at its official home airport in the Ruhr region. Already the evening before, the "BVB Mannschafts-Airbus " was welcomed with a water fountain by the airport fire brigade upon its arrival in Dortmund. Today, the Airbus A320 with the registration "D-AIZR" took off full of holiday-hungry passengers to the new summer destination Alicante.
