Luftfahrtgesellschaft Walter

German Airways Fluggesellschaft GmbH, operating as German Airways and formerly named Luftfahrtgesellschaft Walter or LGW for short, was a German regional airline headquartered in Düsseldorf. Originally LGW was an independent provider of scheduled and chartered low-volume passenger flights. After years of cooperation with Air Berlin, it eventually became a subsidiary of Air Berlin in 2017. After the collapse of Air Berlin it was purchased by Lufthansa in October 2017 and became a unit of the group's low-cost carrier Eurowings. Zeitfracht Group completed the purchase of LGW from Lufthansa on 1 April 2019 and renamed it in early 2020. The contract with Eurowings was terminated in April 2020 and LGW filed for insolvency. In 2022 Summer, KLM wet-leased Germany Airways' airplanes to provide extra capacity on its network. In 2023 the agreement with KLM was extended. [Wikipedia]
