Lufthansa low-cost airline posts profit
29 December 2006Lufthansa’s low-cost airline Germanwings is gearing up for further expansion after posting its first profit just four years after beginning operations, says Germanwings CEO Thomas Winkelmann.
“‘Germanwings has just had the best year in its history,'” said an ebullient Winkelmann over a lunch of wiener schnitzel at Berlin’s Cafe Einstein, a popular meeting place for movers and shakers in the German capital.
Germanwings – which began operating in 2002 – is set to make a profit this year, said Winkelmann who declined to reveal any figures.
