“Dulles works well for all parties,” Schabel said, in an interview. “I think it’s a great hub, and we have great cooperation with United.” Lufthansa is profitable at Dulles, he noted.

United carries the world’s most comprehensive route network and, in addition to Dulles, it includes U.S. mainland hubs in Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, New York/Newark, and San Francisco.

United will schedule the flight three days a week with departures from Dulles on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays starting Nov. 29. It will operate the 10 hour flight with Boeing 787 Dreamliner jets.

In 2002, United averaged 268 flights per day out of Dulles to 72 cities. By November 2005, those numbers had grown to 284 flights to 83 cities.

United said Monday that in 2019 it will add 22 new routes including Newark-Pensacola, Fla.; Dulles-Asheville, N.C. and Hilton Head, S.C. from Chicago, Newark and Dulles.

Its other is from Newark. Systemwide, United will also resume service on seven international routes interrupted by the pandemic, including flights from Dulles to Tokyo’s Haneda airport March 26.
