同社は、1926年に設立されたドイツの国営航空会社である旧ドイツルフトハンザ航空のスタッフによって、1953年1月6日にAktiengesellschaft für Luftverkehrsbedarf(しばしばLuftagと略される)として設立されました。ドイツルフトハンザ航空はドイツの民間航空の発展に重要な役割を果たしましたが、第二次世界大戦中にナチス政権との関係があったため、1951年に解散しました。Luftagは、1954年にルフトハンザ航空の名前とロゴを取得し、かつてのフラッグキャリアのブランドを採用しました。
On 1 September 2015, Lufthansa implemented a 16 euro surcharge on Global Distribution System bookings. The surcharge is payable unless tickets are purchased directly from the airline's website, or at its service centres and ticket counters at the airport. In a statement responding to Lufthansa's strategy, Amadeus, a travel technology company, said the new model would make "comparison and transparency more difficult because travellers will now be forced to go to multiple channels to search for the best fares."[205] For the period between 1–14 September, the airline experienced a 16.1% drop in revenue, indicating to some that the new fee backfired, although the airline maintains the statement that the decrease was due to the pilot strike, and "other seasonal effects".[206]
Deportation flights
Pro-migration activists from Germany have criticised Lufthansa for performing deportation flights on behalf of the German government.[207][175] In 2019, 4,573 people were deported on their planes, while their subsidiary Eurowings performed 1,312 deportations.[208] This totals more than 25% of deportations in Germany in 2019. At least two deportees perished during transport.[174][175]
Treatment of Nazi-era past
Lufthansa has been criticized for lack of transparency about the use of more than 10,000 forced laborers, many of them children, by its predecessor company, Deutsche Luft Hansa, during World War II.[34][25]
Alleged collective punishment of visibly Jewish passengers
In 2022, the company allegedly engaged in collective punishment of visibly Jewish passengers. After a small minority of Jewish passengers did not comply with COVID masking rules on a flight from New York to Frankfurt, the company barred over a hundred visibly Jewish passengers from a connecting flight to Budapest. Lufthansa called in dozens of armed federal police to enforce its policy. A supervisor from Lufthansa explained to passengers that "everyone has to pay for a couple" as "It's Jews coming from JFK. Jewish people who were the mess, who made the problems."[209][210][211][212] The video of Lufthansa supervisor's statement has been compared to the treatment of Jews during the Holocaust.[213] Lufthansa confirmed that it barred a group of passengers from the flight.[214]
German police reacted with rage when passengers asked "why do you hate us?" and used the word Nazi.[215] The German Federal Police confirmed they were called to "presence" at the scene,[216] and in response to later questions said that "Lufthansa called us and said that some of this group from JFK were not following the rules" and that they "did not make any decision at all about who could fly and who could not. As the police even if we did think that their decision was discriminatory, as the police we can't then make the decision about who can and who cannot fly."[217]
The American Jewish Committee stated that "Banning ALL Jews from a flight because of an alleged mask violation by some Jewish passengers is textbook antisemitism from Lufthansa".[218][219] German MP Marlene Schönberger said that if the reports are true, then "there must be consequences" as "Excluding Jews from a flight because they were recognizable as Jewish is a scandal. I expect German companies in particular to be aware of anti-Semitism."[219]
Lufthansa denied its actions were antisemitic saying that "We consider the claim of anti-Semitism to be unwarranted and without merit".[220] Lufthansa later said it wishes to investigate the incident internally.[219] Lufthansa was condemned by US envoy Deborah Lipstadt who described Lufthansa's anti-Semitism as "unbelievable", and stated that her office was in contact with the German government over the incident that involved US citizens.[221]
In August 2022, as a result of the incident, Lufthansa adopted the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism and appointed a senior manager to prevent antisemitism and discrimination.[222][223][224][225]
Banning of Apple AirTags on aircraft
In October 2022, Lufthansa banned all Apple AirTags to track traveler's luggage claiming that they were considered disallowed personal electronic devices.[226]International Air Transport Association (IATA) has not included AirTags or trackers in its Dangerous Goods Regulations manual and Apple rejected this interpretation.[226]
On 21 February 2024, Lufthansa was sued by a man who fractured his back when severe turbulence threw him against the ceiling during a flight in March 2023.[228]
^The company that today is known as Deutsche Lufthansa AG was founded as Aktiengesellschaft für Luftverkehrsbedarf (Luftag) on 6 January 1953.[1] It sees itself in the tradition of Deutsche Lufthansa, the former German national airline that was founded in 1926 and liquidated in 1951, whose name and logo it acquired in 1954.[2][3][4]
