Lufthansa Group Green Fares soar: Over 1m passengers choose eco-friendly travel in first year

A year after introducing Green Fares, the Lufthansa Group has seen over a million passengers choose this eco-friendly option, representing an average of 3% of its travelers and marking a significant step towards sustainable travel. In Business Class, Green Fares account for eleven percent of bookings through the Lufthansa Group online platforms. These fares have seen particular popularity on routes like Hamburg-Munich, Zurich-London, and Frankfurt-Berlin, with increasing demand across all classes, highlighting the initiative’s success. Since their inception, these fares have contributed to offsetting over 77,000 tonnes of CO2, equivalent to the emissions from over 12,000 Hamburg to Munich flights on an Airbus A320neo. Green Fares are available across Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, SWISS, Edelweiss, Discover Airlines, and Air Dolomiti, covering over 730,000 flights annually within Europe and to destinations in Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. The initiative has also expanded to select long-haul routes since November 2023.<br/>
