ASIM, May 06
The Q1 numbers of 2026 show where we stand: making real progress, facing real headwinds, and staying the course.
Our Adjusted EBIT was minus 443 million EUR (Q1/2025: minus 553 million EUR). A significant loss we must fight back over the course of 2026. Our structural challenges — high seasonality, high unit costs and weak unit revenues — remain.
Allegris is our single biggest success this quarter: a tangible yield uplift over the previous product and still more choice for premium passengers. A choice they love!
The external environment is getting harder. The Iran war is driving fuel costs significantly higher, with the full impact hitting from April onwards. Volatility is high, and it demands both short-term crisis response and sustained structural improvement — in parallel. Yet our turnaround program is on track!
At the same time, we are modernizing Lufthansa Airlines. New aircraft are joining our fleet. We are investing in improved catering, the modernization of our lounges, enhancing our app, introducing Starlink. And today our new long-haul service starts in all travel classes! There is a lot more to come — and it matters, because every guest interaction is an opportunity to rebuild trust and loyalty.
