Lufthansa says TAP was an opportunity it could not miss and targets 100% of the airline's capital

Lufthansa's CEO confirmed the group has discussed a path with the Portuguese government to acquire 100% of TAP's capital, despite starting with a minority stake. The airline has offered 1.3 billion euros to acquire the remaining 50.1% of the shares in a potential second phase of privatization, a process subject to new negotiations and competition authority approval expected by the first half of 2028.
