Lufthansa Says Munich Punctuality Hits 11-Year High

The carrier credits added security lanes at the jointly run Terminal 2 for the improvement.

Overview

  • Lufthansa reports that more than 70 percent of its flights at Munich are on time, the best level since 2014.
  • Heiko Reitz, the executive overseeing Munich, called the result an outstanding value and said further gains are still possible.
  • The airline cites a significant increase in security-check lanes compared with a year ago as a key factor.
  • Terminal 2 at Munich is operated jointly by Lufthansa and the airport company, enabling coordinated operational changes.
  • The turnaround follows years of disruptions during and after the pandemic, including a day during Oktoberfest 2024 when hundreds missed flights due to overloaded security checks.
