The previous Hub Manager for Frankfurt, Klaus Froese, has taken over the role on an interim basis and is transferring to Lufthansa's Boeing 747 fleet as a captain as planned.
Heiko Reitz, Member of the Executive Board of Lufthansa Airlines, will take over responsibility as Hub Manager for Munich on September 1, 2025. Jens Ritter, who holds this position in addition to his role as Chief Executive Officer (CEO), will focus on the further development of Lufthansa Airlines as CEO and drive forward the consistent implementation of the turnaround program for the future.
At the beginning of 2025, Lufthansa Airlines introduced two Hub Managers with explicit responsibility for improving operational processes between the Lufthansa teams and their partners at both locations in Frankfurt and Munich. Since then, operational stability and punctuality have improved significantly, as has customer satisfaction.
