Your safety and well-being are our highest priority.

We therefore kindly ask you to use a face mask on all your travels with Lufthansa as of Monday, May 4, during your stay at the airport as well as onboard. All Lufthansa Group cabin crew with direct customer contact will of course also be wearing appropriate protection. Together we can ensure that travel remains safe even in times of the coronavirus.

We kindly ask you to bring your own face mask and, for the sake of sustainability, we recommend a reusable cloth mask. Of course, you may use any type of face covering, such as simple disposable masks or even scarves.

For now, wearing a face mask remains mandatory until August 31, 2020.

Lufthansa Group’s recent provision of free adjacent seats in Economy and Premium Economy class no longer applies, as covering your mouth and nose provides sufficient protection to your health. However, due to the current low seat load factor, seat assignments will be spaced apart as much as possible throughout the cabin. In general, infections remain highly unlikely on board a plane. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, there has not been any known case of infection onboard a Lufthansa Group flight. The air on all Lufthansa Group aircraft circulates vertically, and, in addition, they are equipped with high quality air filters that ensure an air quality similar to that of an operating room.
