Germany's Lufthansa Airlines and China's largest online air ticket booking website, Yoee, announced in Beijing on Thursday that they will jointly promote business charter flights within Europe for Chinese people.

 

The charter flights will operate at all European airports with a 24-hour service. They are marketing the charter flights to business people as a way to cut transfer times and avoid delays.

 

Lufthansa is offering small aircraft carrying a maximum seven passengers with first-class standard services.

 

Prices will be calculated according to the distance traveled.
