COLOGNE (dpa-AFX) - Deutsche Lufthansa AG (DLAKF) Tuesday said it introduced
an Environmental Cost Surcharge to the ticket fare. The company said it is
intended to partly cover additional costs due to regulatory environmental
requirements.

The increased ticket price will be effective June 26.

The company said that Environmental Cost Surcharge stands valid to all flights
sold and operated by the Lufthansa departing from the 27 EU countries as well as
the UK, Norway and Switzerland. This additional charge varying from 1 euro to 72
euros depends on the flight route.

'For effective climate protection, the Lufthansa Group is focusing in particular
on accelerated fleet modernization, the continuous optimization of flight
operations, the use of SAF and offers for private travelers and corporate
customers to make air travel or the transport of freight more sustainable,' the
company said in a statement.
