Lufthansa on Facebook, Twitter & Co.
Lufthansa has been active on various social networks since 2009. The company's Facebook page has become an important part of its customer communications. And rightly so - after all, Lufthansa has over one million fans on Facebook. Lufthansa is also successfully active on Twitter, YouTube and Xing, and it has a blog with interesting news updates from the company.
The company's social media activities are driven by one goal: Lufthansa wants to be wherever its customers are. Lufthansa shares inspiring travel ideas on the Internet as well as tips and up-to-date information on everything to do with flying. Since March 2010, Lufthansa has also responded to Facebook inquiries from users around the clock.
Back in 2009, Lufthansa developed the MySkyStatus.com application which allows users to send automatic status updates about their flights to their friends on social networks. Since 2010, Miles & More members have been able to share travel tips through the MemberScout app. The company's most recent apps include the Blue Legends Foursquare Connected App and the SceneSpotter Facebook app.
With over one million fans, the Lufthansa Facebook page is one of the most popular airline sites worldwide. Facebook users can find news and exciting photos and videos from the world of Lufthansa as well as daily offers and up-to-date information on everything to do with flying. They can also discuss service issues with the company. The official fan site of the Be-Lufthansa.com career portal is aimed at anyone interested in a career with the Lufthansa Group. Potential applicants can find current information on employment opportunities and other details about applying for a job at Lufthansa.
