Lufthansa

Lufthansa is proud to be a sponsor of the 36th annual Portland Marathon. By supporting this popular and widely-attended event, we are showing our commitment to the Portland community.

Lufthansa ranks a month the top ten airlines in the world in terms of size and is the second-largest European airline, serving 411 destinations in more than 96 countries around the world, including 16 North American gateways. Nonstop service between Portland and Frankfurt began in March of 2003. In spring of 2005, Lufthansa upgraded their Business Class service on the route to include lie-flat beds and its wireless Internet onboard service, FlyNet®.

Portland passengers have a choice between five weekly flights compared with just three flights in the years before.

“Our team has worked extremely hard together with many of our local partners to grow and develop the Portland flight to the success it is today.” said Carleen Goeckel, Lufthansa's Regional Sales Manager Western USA.
