At the townhall CS was a bit more candid about CLX (aka CL 2.0):

- LH needs a cost effective feed to MUC/FRA. The cost structure of LH Mainline is not comparable what the current feeders (CLH and EN) offer today
- EN will get the remaining 25 E19x from CLH this year to have 40 E19x aircraft in total. CLH is getting new A32N and existing A319. EN will start to feed OS/LX/SN besides LH in FRA/MUC
- CLHs deal with the union to fly aircraft with >95 seats ends 2026. LH has to find a solution till then for CLH crew and aircraft since the current fleet is >95 seats
- City Airlines (CLX) will start with A319 aircraft and get a fleet of A223 or E29x aircraft by 2025-26. CLH crew will go into CLX with their fleet post 2026
