High time Lufthansa buried the hatchet - The National

Lufthansa is looking increasingly isolated as fast-growing Arabian Gulf airlines are pushing into the European market with alliances and stake purchases.

The German national carrier, Europe's largest airline by numbers of passengers, has steadfastly resisted cooperation with rivals based in the Gulf and has lobbied hard to restrict the number of slots they have at German airports.

Lufthansa argues that they enjoy an unfair competitive advantage because their expansion is being bankrolled with state oil revenues.
