Lufthansa, Germany鈥檚 largest airline, wants to increase the number of domestic flights to compete with rail travel and video conferencing services, the company鈥檚 sales manager, Frank Naeve, told Travel Talk magazine as 聽in the trade publication Airliners. Naeve said the number of business travellers remained around one third below pre-pandemic levels. 鈥淒ay trips within Germany have declined, but the demand is still there," he continued, adding 鈥渨e [want to] make short-haul flying attractive again,鈥� in the interview first published in late June.聽Sascha M眉ller-Kr盲nner,聽Executive Director of environmental NGO Environmental Action Germany (DUH), condemned the move,聽聽that 鈥渇lights within Germany are climate-damaging nonsense and should be prohibited.鈥� Flying with Lufthansa from Germany's northernmost major city, Hamburg, to Munich in the extreme south takes just over one hour and covers a distance of less than 700 kilometres.

While aviation accounts for only a small share of Germany's total emissions, it is one of the fastest-growing sources, and globally, passenger numbers are projected to grow rapidly over the coming years. Due to the sudden collapse of air traffic during the pandemic, Lufthansa received state bailouts to keep the company afloat, 聽to make the credit conditional on a set of far-reaching decarbonisation measures. In May, major Lufthansa shareholders聽criticised聽the company鈥檚 management for failing to introduce a credible strategy outlining how the carrier intends to shift to climate-neutral aviation.
