With the summer travel season in full swing, Lufthansa is once again bolstering its services for families.

“As Europe’s family airline, Lufthansa is making sure traveling with small children is stress free this summer, providing exclusive family-friendly check-in counters in our main hubs, making the check-in process stress free, convenient and above all enjoyable. The real fun begins onboard with new games, meals and activities which will make even the longest journey a memorable experience,” said Lufthansa’s Carsten Schaeffer.

Cuddly animals are not left stranded either – they, too, receive a teddy boarding pass, all their own

The new Family Check-in Areas are for families travelling with children up to 12 years old and conveniently located at both Frankfurt and Munich Airports.

Under the motto “Your youngsters are the greatest”, the special counters, where boarding passes and luggage can be dropped off, are easily found in the terminal.

Cuddly animals are not left stranded either – they, too, receive a teddy boarding pass, all their own. Family guides are also readily available, indicating the location of children’s play areas, baby changing facilities, child-friendly restaurants, pharmacies, supermarkets and observation decks, not to mention discount vouchers for airportshopping.

A new logbook for kids will be handed out on all flights by the crews. All the kids need to do is fill in the logbook with the information on the boarding pass or from theairport. The logbooks can be signed on every flight by a member of the crew.

On board Lufthansa’s long haul flights, kids will find colouring-books, puzzles and fun illustrations of meals to build their appetites. The recipes of the meals served will also be provided so that they can be cooked again at home.

The dedicated children’s menus on Lufthansa flights for children are based on the principles of a healthy, balanced diet. Dishes for young passengers therefore contain as little sugar as possible and instead use honey as a sweetener. Only high-quality fats such as olive oil are used.
