Lufthansa to add green fuel surcharges of up to £61 from next year

Lufthansa will add a surcharge up to £61 per flight to cover the costs of using greener fuels from next year, the German airline has said. The charges will affect flights from the European Union, the UK, Switzerland and Norway, and start from about 85p, depending on the route, the carrier said. Under EU rules, airlines must use a blend of at least 2 per cent of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from 2025, rising steadily to 70 per cent by 2050.
