Deutsche Lufthansa AG - Condor's flight secured by Cartel Office
Many people are drawn to warmer climes such as Southeast Asia or South America in cold February. Vacation travelers reach their long-distance destinations by feeder flights via airport hubs such as Frankfurt. Meanwhile, Lufthansa AG is forging ahead with a plan to expand its business by displacing competitors.
The share is to take off to new heights by strengthening the in-house subsidiary Eurowings. To achieve this, competitor Condor must first be squeezed out of the feeder network. The plan is well received in Lufthansa's boardrooms - but less so by the German Federal Cartel Office. Condor has an antitrust claim for its passengers to access the feeder flights, according to the competition authority in Bonn. "A termination to squeeze Condor out of the long-haul market obviously does not constitute permissible competition and would harm all travelers," Condor CEO Ralf Teckentrup said this week in Frankfurt, according to dpa.
Deutsche Lufthansa AG remains busy and is looking toward bella Italia. Italy is an important market for the Company, where it already has a presence with Eurowings and Air Dolomiti - two wholly-owned subsidiaries. Young ITA Airlines is signaling a partnership interest in a deal after months of rumors. After its resurrection from insolvent Alitalia, this joint venture can give it new wings.
Despite fluctuations, Plug Power's market moves in renewable energy show further growth potential. With 150 patents, the Company is steadfastly securing its market share. An entry and subsequent purchase would be feasible now. Those who want to trade cryptocurrencies themselves or invest in a platform technology like CoinSmart can interview the CEO live on 2/17/22 and decide in the end whether to invest. Despite Corona pandemic and setbacks due to competition law violations, Lufthansa can also make a precision landing in Italy thanks to its future partnership with ITA Airlines. However, it is not really flying for stockholders.
