Overview

  • Selected employees in cabin, cockpit and ground roles will wear the updated pieces in regular operations for four months.
  • The evaluation centers on comfort, fit and functionality, with particular attention to using more sustainable fabrics.
  • Lufthansa calls the testing a decisive phase, and the form and timing of any wider introduction remain undecided.
  • Media reports attribute the designs to Hugo Boss, while the airline has declined to name its contracted provider.
  • The last major uniform change was in early 2002 for about 25,000 staff, and current reporting suggests more than 100,000 employees could be affected this time.
