[閒聊] 漢莎航空下訂A220-300及737 MAX 8

德國漢莎航空集團在12/19下訂80架+120架Options窄體客機

A220-300 40架+20架Options，將配置在Lufthansa City Airlines

737 MAX 8 40架+60架Options，尚未決定配置在哪個公司

A320neo Famiy 40架Options，目前A320neo及A321neo尚有71架尚未交付完成

A220-300跟737 MAX 8將從2026年開始交付，其中737 MAX 8將是737-500自2016年除役後睽違10年737家族回歸漢莎集團

漢莎這次買737MAX還一口氣給了60架選擇權不太意外，最大主因還是A320neo訂單爆量消化不完，即便空巴在漢堡有組裝廠，地主漢莎航空還是沒辦法插隊，交機期程太久波音又給了非常香的價格下，不少航空確實被拉攏

Lufthansa Group orders 80 new highly efficient short- and medium-haul aircraft and agrees on a further 120 purchasing options

The Lufthansa Group is purchasing a total of 80 ultra-modern short and
medium-haul aircraft. The company's Executive Board has decided on

- The purchase of 40 Airbus A220-300s and 20 purchasing options
- The purchase of 40 Boeing 737-8 MAX and 60 purchasing options
- Purchasing options for 40 additional aircraft of the A320 family

The Supervisory Board has approved the acquisition today.

Dr. Detlef Kayser, Member of the Executive Board, Fleet and Technology: "Withtoday's aircraft order, we are accelerating the largest fleet modernization
in our company's history. This increases our order list of around 200
aircraft to 280 – plus an additional 120 purchasing options for further
state-of-the-art short- and medium-haul aircraft. We are pleased that both
Airbus and Boeing were able to convince us on all commercial and
technological aspects. In addition to this, the decision for the Boeing 737-8MAX will also give us more flexibility for the procurement of short- and
medium-haul aircraft in the future. The new ultra-modern aircraft offer our
guests additional comfort. They are also quieter, more economical, more
efficient, and emit up to 30 percent less CO2 than their predecessor models.
The order demonstrates our airlines' future viability and ability to invest,
and it shows that we are living up to our responsibility to reduce our carbonemissions."

Airbus A220-300

This latest-generation aircraft has 148 seats and consumes around 2.5 liters
of fuel per 100 passenger kilometers. The A220 is intended for use by the
newly founded airline Lufthansa City Airlines and will be deployed on
short-haul routes from Frankfurt and Munich. With its ultra-modern geared
turbofan engines from Pratt & Whitney, the A220-300 is ideal for use in
feeder traffic. The first aircraft is scheduled for delivery in 2026.

Boeing 737-8 MAX

The Boeing 737-8 MAX is the further development and 4th generation of the
world's most widespread commercial aircraft. The aircraft will have 190 seatsin Business and Economy Class and, thanks to its efficient engines from CFM
International, will only consume around 2.2 liters per 100
passenger-kilometers. The first aircraft is expected in the third quarter of
2027. As the planned growth path for both Lufthansa Airlines, including
Lufthansa City Airlines, and SWISS is already underpinned by aircraft orders,the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft will be deployed in one of the Lufthansa Group's
other flight operations. The decision on this will be made at a later date.

Airbus A320 family

In addition to the firm orders, Lufthansa Group has secured a further 40
purchase options for aircraft from the A320 family. Around 450 aircraft of
this model series are currently in service with Lufthansa Group airlines,
making it well-established in the short- and medium-haul segment. 71 A320neo
and A321neo aircraft that have already been ordered will be delivered in the
next few years. With the agreed 40 purchase options, Lufthansa Group is now
securing favorable conditions for future orders as part of the Airbus offer.

New aircraft biggest lever for CO2 reduction

With a current fleet of more than 700 commercial aircraft, the Lufthansa
Group is pursuing a long-term fleet strategy focused on cost efficiency and
reducing emissions. Compared to their predecessor models, the new additions
to the Lufthansa Group fleet have up to 30 percent lower fuel consumption andcorrespondingly lower carbon emissions. The Lufthansa Group aims to halve itsnet carbon emissions by 2030 compared to 2019 in order to achieve carbon
neutrality by 2050.

Around USD 9 billion at list price

The aircraft orders agreed today, worth around USD 9 billion at list prices,
are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's capital
expenditure in 2023 and 2024, the period covered by the current medium-term
plan. Net investments of between EUR 2.5 billion and EUR 3 billion are
expected in 2023. Capital expenditure in 2024 is expected to be at a similar
level.
