About the company

Deutsche Lufthansa AG is an aviation group whose public reporting separates Passenger Airlines, Logistics, MRO and Additional Businesses and Group Functions. The passenger portfolio includes several national network airlines and Eurowings.

This chart follows the 2025 annual report's segment boundary and company descriptions. It keeps Lufthansa Cargo under Logistics and Lufthansa Technik under MRO, avoiding the common mistake of drawing both as branches of Lufthansa Airlines.

Airlines, cargo and maintenance under one group

Passenger Airlines contains Lufthansa Airlines, SWISS, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines and Eurowings in the report's airline-level view. Discover Airlines is included with Lufthansa Airlines in some financial and fleet reporting, so it appears as a child of that airline branch rather than a peer reporting segment.

Logistics is the segment for airfreight activity, with Lufthansa Cargo as the key operating name. MRO covers maintenance, repair and overhaul, with Lufthansa Technik at its center.

Additional Businesses and Group Functions appear separately in the management-report overview. They are not another airline or a fourth flying fleet; they collect supporting and other group activities.

The boxes distinguish reported segment membership from legal ownership percentages and personnel hierarchy. The group operates a network of subsidiaries and investees beyond the selective entities shown.

How this structure supports the business

A segment layer makes the group intelligible at a glance: passenger transport, cargo logistics and technical services create different revenue streams and operational demands.

Keeping the airlines together while drawing Cargo and Technik beside them shows which businesses serve the aviation ecosystem without being a passenger airline themselves.

Advantages and disadvantages

The map follows published segments and named airline businesses.: Minor subsidiaries, codeshare arrangements and ownership percentages are outside its scope.

Interesting facts

Lufthansa Airlines is one passenger airline inside the larger group.
SWISS, Austrian Airlines and Brussels Airlines sit in the passenger airline portfolio.
