Conor Dwyer's questions to Deutsche Lufthansa AG (DLAKY) leadership • Q1 2025
Question
Conor Dwyer asked if cargo volumes in other regions have accelerated since the announcement of China tariffs and questioned if a potential North Atlantic capacity reduction could negatively impact H2 unit cost inflation.
Answer
CEO Carsten Spohr stated that Lufthansa Cargo is well-positioned on Asia-to-Europe and Europe-to-U.S. trade lanes, which are benefiting from current dynamics, and is not exposed to the potentially weaker China-to-U.S. flow. CFO Till Streichert reiterated that H2 CASK is expected to normalize and that any capacity adjustment would be a moderation of growth, triggered only if booking trends worsen.
