Lufthansa to ground 150 aircraft due to coronavirus
FRANKFURT: Lufthansa will ground 150 aircraft out of its total fleet of around 770 due to the coronavirus, the German airline said on Wednesday, confirming what company sources had told Reuters earlier.
“We are dynamically adjusting our plans to reflect extraordinary circumstances,” a Lufthansa spokesman said, adding that 25 of the 150 grounded aircraft are long-haul jets.
Last week Lufthansa said it had grounded 23 long-haul aircraft.
