The airline Danish Air Transport reports that there is increased demand on the domestic German routes from Saarbrücken to Berlin and Hamburg. Therefore, the frequencies are being increased and larger aircraft are being used.

Berlin will be served twice a day from Tuesdays to Thursdays and, with the start of the winter flight schedule, also on Fridays, and there will be one service on Sundays and Mondays. So far, DAT has been flying to Hamburg twice a week, with the start of the winter flight schedule three times a week (Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays). During the same period, the number of passengers on the Berlin route rose from around 1.100 in June to over 3.000 (expected) passengers for October. The numbers on the Hamburg connection are also showing an upward trend after DAT's entry in May: more than 500 passengers are expected in September.

The ATR20 machine type is to be used from October 2021, 72. So far, the smaller ATR42 has been used as a rule. As a result, 72 instead of 48 seats will be available per flight in the future. The carrier has also announced that there will be discounted offers for young people from the winter flight schedule 2021/22.

Additional routes from Saarbrücken could be included in the 2022 summer flight schedule. The corresponding decisions are expected to be made in October 2021 and then the goals will be announced. According to DAT, it is certain that the Saarbrücken-Berlin route will be extended to Bornholm next summer. But they don't want to steal any further goals yet.
