Lufthansa redirects capacity from 10 cancelled Middle Eastern destinations to routes including Singapore and Bangkok.
The airline says is meeting rising demand on long-haul services to Asia and Africa that Middle Eastern carriers cannot serve. Adjusted operating profit reaches €2bn for 2025, up from €1.6 billion in 2024. Operating margin rose to 4.9pc from 4.4pc in the previous year. Fuel hedging covers the group in the short term, with 85pc hedged as of December 31.
Carsten Spohr shared “The war in the Middle East proves once again how exposed air traffic is and how vulnerable it remains. Last year we were able to significantly increase the group’s operating profit and achieved the highest revenue in our history. Our results demonstrate the resilience and stability of the group.”
