German airline Lufthansa has announced the cancellation of 20,000 flights for the summer period. The reason was a sharp rise in fuel prices, which forced the company to revise its flight programme.<\/p>\n

Lufthansa cuts flights due to high fuel prices<\/h2>\n

Airline Lufthansa<\/b> has announced a large-scale reduction in its flight programme from May to October 2026. According to an official statement, the carrier will cancel about 20,000 flights, which is about 120 flights daily.<\/p>\n

The main reason for this decision is a significant rising aviation fuel prices<\/a>. The company will focus on removing unprofitable short-haul routes from Munich and Frankfurt.<\/p>\n

Focus on savings and optimisation<\/h2>\n

Lufthansa expects the reduction in the number of flights to save around 40,000 tonnes of fuel over the summer. This will be one of the company's biggest cost optimisation steps in 2026.<\/p>\n

The airline stressed that the routes that are not profitable and those with low load will be removed first.<\/p>\n

Updated flight schedule - at the end of April<\/h2>\n

Lufthansa plans to publish its updated summer flight schedule in late April or early May. Passengers are advised to check the current schedule and follow the company's news.<\/p>\n

The airline has previously taken similar steps to reduce costs and improve efficiency.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
