Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that Eurowings intends to cut five percent of its planned flight program due to high fuel costs. The newly launched routes from Cologne and Stuttgart to Dubai would be discontinued, while the route from Berlin would remain unchanged. The Lufthansa subsidiary is considering short-time work for the winter and is already in discussions with the Federal Employment Agency, according to Boeminghaus. In addition, administrative costs should be reduced, and the Christmas party should be canceled. The Verdi union is demanding a possible increase in short-time work benefits.
