Lufthansa

The German government has granted Emirates additional traffic rights in Germany, meaning the airline will likely be allowed to connect Berlin‑Brandenburg (BER) with Dubai and thus intensify international competition for Lufthansa in Berlin. The new flights are limited to a maximum of seven services per week and may not offer onward flights to third countries from the new German base. Lufthansa is critical of the decision, while Condor and Eurowings are also planning direct Berlin–Dubai services, further increasing competitive pressure; at the same time, rising oil prices are weighing on the stock. » Mais em deraktionaer.de

From the end of October 2026 Lufthansa will gradually return to Dubai and plans up to 36 weekly flights at peak; Swiss, Austrian Airlines and Eurowings are also launching services. The aim is to strengthen its presence in the Middle East and expand the offering across multiple hubs. Analysts remain largely skeptical despite the network expansion (consensus: Moderate Sell) and expect only limited short‑term share‑price effects; reliable indications of financial impact are unlikely before the results due in early November. » Mais em finanzen.net

The Portuguese government will decide in mid-October on buyers for a 44.9% minority stake in TAP; Lufthansa and Air France-KLM must revise their bids and are granted a three-week negotiation period. In addition, 5% of the shares are reserved for TAP employees, while the state will initially retain the majority. The Lufthansa share is under pressure due to high jet-fuel prices and, despite partial hedging, the market environment remains tense, so investors should wait for now. » Mais em deraktionaer.de
