Key Takeaways
2024 was a challenging year for Deutsche Lufthansa AG as a weak home market, requirements around sustainability and a slower return of capacity post-pandemic than other carriers impacted the airline’s performance.
Lufthansa reduced capacity in every market throughout 2024 compared to 2019 capacity levels, notably:
Middle East: -44%
Latin America: -26%
Europe: -18% (despite making up 88% of total capacity)
Interestingly, Lufthansa's second-largest market is the USA and not one of the major European markets, an unusual position for a European airline.
As Germany’s national airline, Lufthansa continue to dominate capacity at the two main airport hubs - Frankfurt and Munich - where they hold close to 60% share at each, with large proportions of that traffic connecting onwards to other destinations.
