LOT Flights

In 1929, the state enterprise LOT Polish Airlines was established. Over time, part of the shares passed into private hands. The company consists of two subsidiaries: Eurolot, which operates domestic flights, and LOT charter. Nowadays, the airline is the flagship of Polish aviation, headquartered in the capital of Poland. Here, at Warsaw's WAW (Frederic Chopin) airport, it is the main transport hub and home port. Year after year, the route network is expanding, new flights are launched, offering its customers trips to more than 60 destinations around the world. The company has a reputation of a punctual air carrier, with a high level of service on board, and is a member of the largest world union Star Alliance. As part of its commitment to the environment, the airline has established the Destination Eco program. Any passenger can voluntarily participate in it and donate a small amount, thus contributing to the protection of the environment.
