Lufthansa takes off for Oktoberfest 2026 in new traditional Bavarian costume

For Oktoberfest 2026, the crews of the traditional flights will be dressed in a new look for the Octoberfest season. The collection was designed by Lower Bavarian traditional fashion manufacturer Spieth & Wensky and combines Bavarian tradition with elements of Lufthansa’s design for the first time: the crane from the brand logo, for instance, adorns the buttons of the ladies’ and men’s knitwear. The characteristic “Wing Pattern” — a special Lufthansa design — has been rewoven into the skirt and waistcoat.

Ryanair, Turkish and Lufthansa make biggest cuts on EX-YU markets

Ryanair, Turkish Airlines and Lufthansa will record the largest year-on-year reductions in available capacity across the former Yugoslavia this coming winter season, which begins on October 25 and runs until March 27. Ryanair will offer 225.092 fewer seats, taking its total below one million. Most of the reduction stems from the termination of its Niš operations and the suspension of its Sarajevo flights for the winter. Turkish Airlines will cut 75.029 seats as it reduces services to Podgorica, Pristina, Skopje and Zagreb, and suspends flights to Tivat. Lufthansa’s capacity will fall by 51.792 seats following the temporary suspension of Munich - Ljubljana flights, the termination of Frankfurt - Skopje services and reductions on its Zagreb routes. The use of larger aircraft elsewhere in the region will offset part of that decline. Ryanair will account for the largest capacity reductions in both Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. In Croatia, Lufthansa will make the biggest cut, primarily because its Munich - Zagreb flights will be taken over by Air Dolomiti under the latter’s own code and flight numbers in January and February of next year, while overall frequencies will be halved during that period. Air Dolomiti will record the largest reduction in Slovenia. It operated services on Lufthansa’s behalf last winter but will not serve Ljubljana this winter. It will be followed by Swiss. Lufthansa itself will offer more seats in Slovenia than last winter despite suspending Munich - Ljubljana flights, thanks to the use of larger Airbus A321 aircraft on its Frankfurt service. Lufthansa will also make the largest capacity cut in Macedonia following the termination of Frankfurt- Skopje service this summer. In Montenegro, Turkish Airlines will record the biggest reduction as it scales back Podgorica operations and suspends winter flights to Tivat. At Pristina, locally based GP Aviation will make the largest cut after reducing its network and frequencies amid the opening of Wizz Air’s base at the airport. EX-YU Aviation News

Air Serbia and Croatia Airlines secure top three Skytrax rankings

Air Serbia and Croatia Airlines have been named among the leading carriers in their respective regions at the 2026 World Airline Awards, organised by Skytrax. However, changes to Skytrax’s geographic classifications and the number of airlines included make direct comparisons with last year more difficult. Air Montenegro, which featured in the previous two editions, has not appeared within any category. Air Serbia was voted the second-best airline in Eastern Europe, improving from third place last year. It ranked behind airBaltic and ahead of Georgian Airways, Bulgaria Air and TAROM. However, three carriers that were previously included in the category - LOT Polish Airlines, Wizz Air and Croatia Airlines - have been moved to a newly introduced Central European ranking. Croatia Airlines placed third in the Central European category, behind LOT Polish Airlines and Wizz Air. Skytrax listed only those three carriers in the ranking. The Croatian flag carrier was seventh in Eastern Europe last year, while LOT and Wizz placed first and fourth respectively. Skytrax has not provided an explanation for the geographic reshuffle or why only three airlines were included in the new Central European table. The classification is also applied inconsistently across the awards. In the regional cabin crew rankings, Croatia Airlines continues to be grouped under Eastern Europe. It was named the region’s second-best carrier for cabin crew, behind airBaltic, while Air Serbia placed third. Air Montenegro does not feature in any of the published 2026 rankings. The carrier placed tenth in Eastern Europe in both 2024 and 2025. Air Serbia maintained a strong showing in the regional airline categories. It was named the third-best regional carrier in Europe, behind Aegean Airlines and Air Dolomiti, retaining the same position as last year. Globally, it improved from eighteenth to seventeenth place among regional airlines. However, the Serbian carrier dropped out of the world’s top 100 airlines after making its first appearance in the ranking last year, when it placed 99th. Neither Croatia Airlines nor Air Montenegro featured in the top 100. Singapore Airlines was named the world’s best airline for the sixth time in the history of the awards, moving up from second place last year. It was followed by 2025 winner Qatar Airways, while Cathay Pacific retained third place. ANA All Nippon Airways and Turkish Airlines completed the top five. Turkish Airlines was also named Europe’s best carrier, ahead of Air France and Lufthansa, while oneworld was voted the world’s best airline alliance. The 2026 World Airline Awards were presented at a ceremony in London yesterday. The results were based on an online passenger survey conducted between September 2025 and August 2026, covering more than 300 airlines. Travellers from over 100 nationalities participated. Skytrax says the awards are independent, with no entry or registration fees, sponsorship or payments required from airlines. Survey submissions are screened, with duplicate, suspect and ineligible entries removed. Despite their prominence, the Skytrax rankings have faced criticism over their transparency. The organisation does not publish detailed vote totals, airline-specific sample sizes, scores or the weighting applied to individual survey categories. EX-YU Aviation News
