Earlier in the year, Lufthansa was awarded an "A-" rating by CDP for its CO2 reduction strategy, marking the second consecutive year it achieved this top climate ranking. The CDP climate ranking is widely regarded as a benchmark for environmental reporting standards globally.

Lufthansa's experts continue to analyze these ratings to enhance performance further. The group's comprehensive ESG reporting aligns with both national and international standards and includes voluntary disclosures under frameworks like TCFD and SASB.

The Lufthansa Group remains committed to ambitious sustainability goals, aiming to halve net CO₂ emissions by 2030 compared to 2019 levels through reduction and compensation measures. By 2050, they aim for a neutral CO₂ balance using similar strategies. Key initiatives include fleet modernization, optimizing flight operations, utilizing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), and providing sustainable travel options for customers.
