The Lufthansa Group will expand collaboration among its group companies.
Alongside strengthening and expanding the market positions of its hub carriers—Lufthansa German Airlines, Swiss International Air Lines, Austrian Airlines, and Brussels Airlines—the group will improve efficiency and profitability. Coordination will be managed through a Group Functions Committee.
In the future, network management for all hub airlines’ short- and medium-haul routes will also be centrally overseen across the group. This has already been the case for long-haul routes for the past ten years, improving efficiency and speeding up decision-making.
The group already collaborates on mileage programs and app development; the apps are developed centrally within the group and customized in design and functionality for each airline.
Meanwhile, decisions related to the customer experience—such as in-flight meals, catering, lounges in their respective home markets, and passenger services—are made by each airline. They also remain responsible for managing flight operations and operational services.
