We will never forget it. The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic dealt an unprecedented blow to the entire airline industry and this also to the Lufthansa Group. Last year, we welcomed only 36 million passengers on board our flights – a quarter of our normal passenger numbers. Our passenger airlines had to cut their capacity significantly, and for much longer and in more areas than anticipated over the course of the year.
