Ariana Afghan Airlines Inaugurates Frankfurt- Kabul Route;
New air link vital for Afghanistan's Economic Development

Frankfurt, Germany (ots)

Frankfurt Airport's (FRA) extensive
network of flight destinations continues to expand with today's 
inauguration of a new route between Frankfurt and Kabul - currently
the only scheduled air service between Europe and Afghanistan. Using
an Airbus A300, Ariana Afghan Airlines will offer one flight per week
from Frankfurt to Kabul via Istanbul (Turkey) and Sharja (United Arab
Emirates). Along with this Wednesday service, Ariana Afghan Airlines
intends to add soon a second weekly flight on Sundays.
Vital for Afghanistan's economic development, the new connection
will be used primarily by politicians, military personnel, media
representatives, staff from international relief agencies and
businesspeople involved in redevelopment projects. Air transport
links to the rest of the world are considered important for helping
Afghanistan to rebuild and to create a new future of peace and
prosperity.
At Frankfurt Airport, passengers of Ariana Afghan Airlines check
in for their flight in Departures Hall C of Terminal 1. Fraport AG's
Aviation Ground Handling and Logistics (BVD) strategic business
division has been contracted by Ariana to provide passenger and cargo
handling services. For more information, contact Ariana's main German
