Lufthansa is bringing back five A340-600s from storage for placement in Frankfurt. Another five A340-600s will follow.

Lufthansa says deliveries of its next A350-900 with First Class will now begin towards the end of 2023, following delays at the manufacturer.

Spor just has to ask the Board to change the rules for him. They will, I am pretty sure. Sorry, for the sarcasm....

And Spohr has indeed been confirmed for another 5 years, until the end of December 2028. He has been CEO of the Lufthansa Group since 2014. Quite long compared to his predecessors.

The company should operate a fleet of A319s based in Munich. No date of the launching was announced. Negotiations regarding the employment contract with the staff have just started. The AOC was filed in 2022.

Another Lufthansa company? After Lufthansa itself, Eurowings, Eurowings Discover, Lufthansa CityLine, Lufthansa Cargo, now City Airlines...

It's becoming confusing. How will customers find their way through all those subtleties?

Customers don’t need to find their way through the subtitles, there will be just a little note “operated by XXX” when they book a LH ticket.
Nothing confusing, it’s just a trick to reduce salaries.

Historically Lufthansa has been about a decade behind the state of the art of liveries as it were. Overall I understand the thinking behind it. Generally speaking it goes in line with Lufthansa Group branding and cabin experience over the past five years or so. Keep it simple, keep it conservative, keep it professional with the notable exception of that My Austrian garbage they tried to pull. So I like it. Will it be the most noticeable plane on the tarmac? Certainly not. Is it bad? It could be better, but overall no.
