New Quay has been on LH Magazine's route map for several years but it's the first time there is a direct flight to this small seaside town (pop. 1,200).
It's interesting that BRS is mentioned as a Lufthansa partner destination. Perhaps there will be an announcement soon. I'll have to alert our friends on the BD forum.

That map is somewhat out of date despite being very amusing.
NQY I'd served ex DUS seasonally and has been for many years.
PLH has been closed for quite some time now and as far as I'm aware hasn't had any sort of LH service/codeshare in my memory.

all... I'd like to know if the HON / 1st class chauffeur driven service from the terminal to the plane can be made avaliable to any other traveller (FTL / SEN / Business Class)? If yes, for how much ? I know it's just a l5 min ride but I am just curious about it ...
If yes, could someone let me know in which airport hub can this service be purchased ?
thanks a lot !

Not really the right place to ask but does anyone know why I saw so many short haul aircrafts from BA in JNB?

As whiskey_sk says, it's Comair which is part owned by BA. They fly JNB-CPT and several other routes as I recall. I'm pretty sure from an FFP angle, it is the same as flying BA proper. It's been several years since I've flown them, but I am pretty sure I got full credit and bonus points as BA Gold.
