Why book

Fastest when the corridor is clear. No connection risk but entire journey depends on the Central Asian corridor — Lufthansa operates reduced frequency.

The catch

Only one path. No other way if it closes

Worth knowing

Entire route depends on Central Asian corridor. Check Eurocontrol ATFM. Lufthansa reduced FRA–HKG frequency post-2022 — verify current schedule before booking.
