Lufthansa Group: Europe’s largest aviation group successful worldwide
With the business segments engineering and technology, logistics, catering, and IT, Lufthansa is more broadly positioned than any other European airline – in many sectors, its subsidiaries are global market leaders.

AnalysesNew Germanwings: Lufthansa subsidiary revolutionising European travel
With the new Germanwings headquartered in Cologne, the Lufthansa Group is repositioning itself outside the major intercontinental hubs of Frankfurt and Munich: Starting summer 2013, the new Germanwings will offer “à la carte flying” in Lufthansa style.
Lufthansa Cargo and air freight: Lifeblood of the export industry
The successes of the German export industry would be inconceivable without highly productive air freight services – with its roughly 4,600 employees, Lufthansa Cargo has a considerable share in this achievement.

Lufthansa Technik has dozens of inventions patented per year. More climate protection in air transport, greater comfort for travellers, and high-tech jobs for Germany are the result – in Hamburg alone, the company employs 7,500 workers.
LSG Sky Chefs: Global market leader placing focus on sustainability
Lufthansa subsidiary LSG Sky Chefs delivers over 1.4 million meals per day. With a market share of 27 percent, the company is a global market leader in aviation catering – and environmental sustainability is among the major factors for its success.
