Sick bags with instructions, the very first handwritten share
register and a crane that grew into an icon: in the opening episode
of season 2 of Above and Beyond, we step into the beating heart of
Lufthansa – its archive. Archivist Luisa Schürmann and her
predecessor Carola Kapitza unlock the airline’s treasure chest –
from quirky attic finds and 1950s inflight tableware to adventurous
pioneering flights – showing how the crane has shaped aviation and
why some memories remain very much alive at Lufthansa today.
Joining them is Lufthansa CEO Jens Ritter, who shares why history
matters for the future – and why openness to innovation must
complement Lufthansa’s rich tradition. Tune in for a journey
brimming with anecdotes, artefacts and passion for the dream of
flight. (AI-assisted)
