Airline Takes Precautionary Measures To Ensure Smooth Operations
Lufthansa has instructed crews on certain flights to Frankfurt to take on extra fuel before departure due to pipeline maintenance reducing supply capacity at its main hub. The airline has stated that this precautionary measure is not expected to lead to flight cancellations. Meanwhile, Switzerland has authorized withdrawals from jet fuel reserves to prevent a shortage at Zurich Airport, which is facing supply constraints. According to AeroTime, the measures are already showing positive results, and Lufthansa expects to end them soon.
