Description: LHA Deutsche Lufthansa January 08, 2026
Deutsche Lufthansa AG (XETRA:LHA) operates globally across three core segments: Passenger Airlines (Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian, Brussels Airlines, Eurowings), Logistics (air-freight container handling, urgent shipments, customs clearance, e-commerce solutions), and Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul (MRO) services for commercial aircraft, VIP jets, and government fleets, plus ancillary offerings such as training, IT, and billing services.
As of 31 December 2024 the group managed a fleet of 735 aircraft and traces its origins to 1926, with corporate headquarters in Cologne, Germany.
Key recent metrics: 2023 total revenue reached €41 billion, driven by a 9 % year-over-year increase in passenger traffic and a 12 % rise in cargo volumes; the combined passenger-load factor averaged 84 %, above the European industry average of 78 %. Primary economic levers include volatile jet-fuel prices, EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) carbon costs, and the pace of post-pandemic leisure demand, all of which materially affect operating margins.
