Lufthansa Cargo has in recent months appointed a new regional head, a new head of hub management for Munich and a new vice president of global revenue management and pricing.
On 15 February, Gunnar Loehr will take over as head of region Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well as key account management for the regions of Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Loehr joined Lufthansa Cargo in 2002 and from 2004 was responsible for the Arabian Peninsula, Levant, and Iran region.
He moved to Lufthansa Cargo headquarters in Frankfurt to head strategic projects in 2008 and subsequently took over as head of global handling processes and performance in 2011.
In 2015, he took over responsibility for Latin America and since 2019, he has been heading Lufthansa Group’s logistics procurement, as well as supply management and infrastructure at Lufthansa Cargo.
Loehr is taking over from Philip Rauchhaus, who took over the position of vice president of global revenue management and pricing at Lufthansa Cargo on 1 January.
In turn, Rauchhaus is succeeding Helge Krueger-Lorenzen, who is retiring after 38 years with the Lufthansa Group.
Finally, Markus Cirjan will take over the operational management of the Lufthansa Cargo hub in Munich.
He is currently director of sales & handling US Mid-Atlantic & Ohio Valley and joined Lufthansa Cargo in Atlanta in 2013 in the lean management division.
This was followed by various projects and positions in sales and handling at the US stations in Atlanta, Charlotte, and Washington and in 2023, he took over the management of the sales and handling department for the Mid-Atlantic and Ohio Valley region from Washington.
Cirjan succeeds Ivo Seehann, who has been taking on new responsibilities since the end of 2025 as part of the closer cooperation with Swiss WorldCargo.
