Green Fares: more sustainable flying with Discover Airlines
A neutral CO2 balance (net) by 2050 is the ambitious goal set by the Lufthansa Group. A goal that is worth every effort. To achieve this, we want to reduce emissions from air travel as much as possible. One result of this trajectory is delivering Green Fares – these are fares that enable more sustainable travel.
Reduce and offset: Green Fares throughout Europe
When selecting Economy Green and Business Green fares, 20% of the individual flight-related CO2 emissions are reduced by using sustainable aircraft fuels (SAF), and offset the remaining 80% of CO2 emissions to an equivalent extent by contributing to high-quality climate protection projects. This 20:80 combination of carbon reduction and offsetting is a fundamental part of the Green Fares on European flights and allows more sustainable air travel.
Reduce and offset: Green Fares throughout the rest of the world
We offer Green Fares on a wide range of intercontinental routes, flown by the Lufthansa Group to make your travel more sustainable.
Selecting one of the Economy Green, Premium Eco Green or Business Green fares on intercontinental routes will reduce 10% of individual flight-related carbon emissions by using sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs). The remaining 90% will offset by contributing to high-quality climate protection projects.
Applicable to intercontinental round-trip flights of Lufthansa Group Airlines, except for bookings to and from Japan and China, as well as for journeys starting in North and Central America.

Green Fares are not booked separately, but form an independent and directly bookable fare alongside the Economy, Premium Economy and Business fares.
