Operating income down 27%

Revenue went up by 1% to EUR 15,812m in 2024 (previous year: EUR 15,634m). The increase was mainly due to higher volume-driven traffic revenue. Other operating income fell by 83% to EUR 1,277m (previous year: EUR 7,632m), mainly due to the recognition in the previous year of book gains from two capital contributions in connection with Lufthansa Cargo AG and Lufthansa Technik AG. Overall, operating income declined by 27% to EUR 17,089m (previous year: EUR 23,266m).
