Quality and Social Responsibility

Why we care more

Lufthansa City Center gives great consideration to the future of the company and its workforce. As the only global travel agency chain that has its headquarter and base in Germany, we are continually setting standards in many areas. Therefore, we have high expectations of ourselves when it comes to corporate social responsibility - for example ensuring we shape a responsible course for the future. Lufthansa City Center headquarter is committed to making environmental protection an integral part of its business activities. Therefore, minimizing our environmental impact and improving our green services are at the forefront of our operations. We are proud to call the Lufthansa City Center International headquarter a carbon neutral company certified by ClimatePartner since November 2022.

Lufthansa City Center plays an active role in various corporate social sustainability initiatives. Through these memberships we can raise awareness on sustainability issues among industry partners and institutions:

Corporate Social Responsibility

Our best asset: our workforce

Our future rests on the performance and personality of our staff. We value this asset and look after it with career opportunities for young people that are fit for the future. We also offer a broad range of training and professional development measures which ensure the growth of our quality brand.

Carbon Neutral Company

Wherever possible, Lufthansa City Center avoids and reduces carbon emissions. Together with ClimatePartner, Lufthansa City Center International headquarter fully compensates the produced 32.499 kg CO2 emissions by additional carbon offset projects. Thus, we are a certified carbon neutral company since November 2022.

Environmental Management Certification

Our Business Travel Lufthansa City Center offices and the Lufthansa City Center Headquarters in Frankfurt bear a special seal of quality: certification in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001 and 14001. Not only does it identify us as a quality provider, but it acknowledges our sustained commitment to our wide range of vocational education and training.

 

 

Since 2022 carbon neutral

ClimatePartner's "climate neutral" label certifies that remaining greenhouse gas emissions have been offset. Next to the international carbon offset, the Lufthansa City Center International headquarter also engages in an ocean protection project. For every ton of CO2 produced, 10 kg of plastic are collected from the ocean.
