The Lufthansa subsidiary Eurowings is planning further flights to Mallorca for the Easter holidays.
The offer, which was significantly increased over the weekend, met with very strong demand, said a spokesman for the airline in Cologne on Wednesday.
Some of the 300 new connections launched over the weekend during the Easter holidays are already booked out again.
One will probably add more, especially since the program announced so far only represents around 40 percent of the actually usual offer.
Other companies such as the parent company Lufthansa, Condor, Tuifly or the Irish Ryanair had also announced additional flights to the holiday region after the corona travel warning for the Balearic Islands and some other areas was lifted on Sunday.
German vacationers no longer have to go into quarantine after returning.
214 euros for a return flight
According to the Internet comparison portal “Idealo”, ticket prices for Mallorca flights have risen sharply around Easter after the announcement.
In a data query on Tuesday afternoon, the portal determined an average price of 214 euros for a return flight within the three weeks of the German Easter school holidays.
That was around three times the price that was announced for these tickets at the beginning of February.

"We have not increased the prices," said the Eurowings spokesman.
When booking a flight, it is always the case that early bookings are cheaper than those shortly before departure.
In addition, the individual connections are often almost fully booked due to the tight supply, so that only the last expensive tickets from the highest booking class are available.
However, new flights are continuously fed into the system, which then start again at the entry price.
In addition, the mask affair is expanding in the Union.
According to information released on Wednesday, the Munich Public Prosecutor's Office is now investigating five suspects, including a member of the Bundestag and a member of the Bavarian state parliament.
A total of ten properties in Munich and in the administrative district of Swabia were searched.
Further details could not be given at the moment.
