Green Fares: More sustainable air travel

A carbon-neutral footprint by 2050. This is the ambitious target set by Lufthansa and the Lufthansa Group, and we’re putting every effort into achieving it, including making our aviation emissions as low as possible. One outcome of this strategy is Green Fares - new fares that make more sustainable travel possible both throughout Europe and on selected intercontinental routes.

Our new Green Fares will also earn you extra Points and enable you to enjoy flexible rebooking options, as well as the extra benefits of our Economy or Business Saver fares.

Reduce and offset: Green Fares throughout…

…Europe

Selecting one of the Economy Green and Business Green fares will reduce 20% of individual flight-related CO₂ emissions by using sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) and offset the remaining 80% of CO2 emissions to an equivalent extent by contributing to high-quality climate protection projects. This 20:80 combination of carbon reduction and offsetting is a fundamental part of the Green Fares on European flights and allows more sustainable air travel.

…the rest of the world

We now offer Green Fares on a wide range of intercontinental routes, flown by the Lufthansa Group to make your travel more sustainable.

Selecting one of the Economy Green, Premium Eco Green, Business Green or First Green fares on intercontinental routes will reduce 10% of individual flight-related carbon emissions by using sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs). The remaining 90%  will offset by contributing to high-quality climate protection projects.

Applicable to intercontinental round-trip flights of Lufthansa Group Airlines, except for bookings to and from Japan and China, as well as for journeys starting in North and Central America.
