Lufthansa Aims to Save Fuel by Cutting Short-Haul Routes

Lufthansa cuts 20,000 short-haul flights by October to save 40,000 metric tons of fuel.
Fuel costs doubled since the Iran conflict, prompting early retirement of 27 CityLine aircraft.
Lufthansa canceled 120 flights by May, impacting major hubs like Frankfurt, Munich, and Rome.
Passengers still access long-haul routes despite operational efficiency measures due to fuel price rises.
