BERLIN, March 17 (Reuters) – Germany’s Lufthansa expects the dominance of Gulf carriers like Emirates and Qatar Airways on Asian routes to be diminished by the Iran war, CEO Carsten Spohr told business magazine Manager Magazin in an interview published on Tuesday.
“The major hubs of the Gulf carriers are located in a region that is now clearly exposed to new risks. What this means for the future of global air travel remains to be seen,” he said.
