Lufthansa plans to cut 33,000 flights from the winter schedule because of the spread of omicron-related trips, said CEO Carsten SPOHR.
“From mid-January to February, we saw a sharp decline in reservations,” he said on Thursday, adding that 33,000 flights were equivalent to around 10% of flight plans.
Lufthansa felt the absence of passengers from Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Belgium, who were hit very difficult by the pandemic, said SPOHR.
He said the German airline would cut more flights if it did not have to obey the UE rules about the use of slots.
