A team of AI-native specialists across marketing and tech from the agency will focus on streamlining and automating internal processes to deliver more efficient and personalised solutions for customers. In addition, the scope also includes digital content creation, localisation, and distribution for owned and earned channels. 

“Lufthansa Group is one of those ambitious brands and we can’t wait to go on this journey. The Lufthansa Group brief hits our sweet spot, uniquely marrying tech and marketing to unlock innovation for the airline group”, said Andrew Dimitriou, Global Chief Client & Growth Officer, DEPT®. 

Set to kick off in early 2025, the scope of the relationship encompasses many of the Lufthansa Group airline brands (Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Discover Airlines, Lufthansa, and SWISS) across several key markets in EMEA.
