For the privelege of this short flight LH charges only €800 Y and €1000 C return, those are the only fares available. No problem of course, the taxpayer will be paying for most of that. Good for LH though!

The SXB bus no good at €99...of course not!
I´d assume very few people actually pay those fares, but even taking into account the discount they get it speaks volumes IMO that LH only publishes Y and C fares.

Also, it´s slightly irritating (but not surprising at all) that the return flight is on a Thursday and not a Friday.
