By refreshing our brand image, we have begun a new chapter in the history of the Lufthansa Group. The modern design embodies our combination of tradition and innovation and underlines our aim of setting standards in our industry. In 2018, our financial results fulfilled this aim: The Lufthansa Group was one of the few companies in the sector to have achieved the targets set at the start of the year. Despite numerous challenges, the result was almost on par with the previous year. Integration costs at Eurowings in connection with the takeover of significant parts of Air Berlin, irregularities in flight operations and much higher fuel costs added up to a massive financial burden. Profitable growth and efficiency gains nevertheless enabled us to compensate for most of these adverse effects. Network Airlines performed particularly well in this difficult environment.

    PRESS RELEASE East Meadow, November 7, 2019 Further informations on Lufthansa Group achieves an Adjusted EBIT of EUR 1.3 billion third-quarter results: → https://investor- in the third quarter relations.lufthansagroup. com/en/publications/fina ncial-reports.html − Third-quarter result only slightly below prior-year level, despite economic slowdown and higher fuel costs − Substantially greater unit cost reduction than in the first-half year − Slower growth at Group airlines and their competitors helps counter pricing pressures in Europe − North Atlantic business still buoyant, with third-quarter performance exceeding prior-year − Full-year guidance confirmed In a challenging operating environment, Lufthansa Group achieved an Adjusted EBIT of EUR 1.3 billion for the third quarter of 2019, only slightly below the EUR 1.4 billion of the prior-year period. Against the backdrop of higher fuel costs, which were EUR 171 million above their 2018 level in the third quarter alone, the Group delivered a sound business performance for the period. “Our airlines were able to translate their premium quality and market strength into solid third-quarter earnings,” confirms Carsten Spohr, Chairman of the Executive Board & CEO of Deutsche Lufthansa AG. “At Eurowings the turnaround measures are showing first results; and at Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines and Lufthansa Cargo we will be taking tangible corrective action to improve earnings. As Europe’s leading airline group, we are on a sound and stable strategic course.” The third-quarter earnings were supported by continued strong business on North Atlantic routes. Unit costs were also substantially reduced in the third quarter, particularly at the Network Airlines.

It all started with a military surplus C-47, leading the way with the first Jet service in the continent in the early 60’s to the first B-767 in the mid 80’s, to the first African B-787 Dreamliner in 2012 and the first African Airbus A-350 in 2016.

  • Recommended Best Practices for Commercial Operators
    OPERATIONS IN AIRSPACE CLASS E IN GERMANY BELOW FL100 RECOMMENDED BEST PRACTICES FOR COMMERCIAL OPERATORS The following best practices have been developed by flight safety officers and experts to enhance the safety of operations in airspace Class E below FL100 to prevent collisions between controlled and uncontrolled aircraft in a mixed traffic environment. Recommendations for training departments and pilots • IMPROVE AIRSPACE AWARENESS Train pilots to be aware of shortfalls in the existing airspace structure – annual training and NOT only by bulletin using two components: o Generic briefing on airspace Class E in Germany o Dedicated airport briefing documents o Include risk and threats in unprotected airspace in individual departure and arrival briefing • OPERATING RECOMMENDATIONS o FLY DEFENSIVELY! o Maintain Minimum Clean Airspeed or as slow as reasonable o Request to use protected airspace – minimise time in airspace Class E and refuse shortcuts if necessary. Most standard departures and approaches/transitions will facilitate this. o Descend according to airspace structure on arrival. Steep/expedited climb through airspace Class E on departure. o Consider airspace structure for engine out procedures o Consider delaying take-off if conflict with other aircraft is anticipated • USE OF AUTOMATION IN AIRSPACE CLASS ECHO o Minimise visual approaches – they require additional attention and increase flight time in unprotected airspace o Maximise lookout capacity through use of automation (FMS/task sharing) • SEE AND AVOID o Maximise lookout
