Lufthansa expects to achieve adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of around €1.5 billion in 2022, the German flag carrier said in a statement today.
Lufthansa saw strong demand for air travel and better-than-expected earnings in October and November, it added.
The group's previous EBIT forecast was for more than €1 billion.
Lufthansa already raised its profit outlook in October, helped by strong demand for air travel that continued its post-Covid recovery.
Lufthansa's shares were up 4.4% this morning, among the best performers of Germany's midcaps index.
Its shares are up 30% year to date.
