Lufthansa extends NetJets collaboration

Lufthansa said it is extending its Lufthansa Private Jet cooperation with NetJets for a further five years after a successful 2006 in which the number of Private Jet flights rose 13%. Up to 10 private corporate jets were booked daily last year, with highest demand--60% of the total--coming from point-to-point connections to around 1,000 destinations in Europe and the Russian Federation. LH said "more jets will be on call" to accommodate increased demand and it is adding a Falcon 2000 capable of seating 10 passengers to its offering.
