Despite difficult conditions, 2022 was a successful year for LOT Polish Airlines. The latest forecasts confirm that the Polish airline managed to grow significantly again after overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic.  In 2022, LOT Polish Airlines operated more than 85,000 flights and carried around 8 million passengers. Thereby, the airline achieved a turnover of presumably over 8 billion Polish zlotys (PLN; approx. 149 billion INR) and generated a net profit of more than 100 million PLN (approx. 1.864 billion INR).

LOT Polish Airlines further expanded its network in 2022. In addition to the India’s business capital Mumbai, the airline also added Cairo (Egypt) and Baku (Azerbaijan) to its schedule. Flights to Beijing made a comeback and North America, traditionally an important market for the airline, was served up to 50 times per week during the summer schedule season. In total, the route network comprised 167 destinations (as of the end of 2022).

“The forecast results for LOT Polish Airlines clearly demonstrate that the airline is on the right track,” said Katarzyna Lewandowska, CEO & President of the Management Board. “This is particularly pleasing in light of Russia’s war of aggression on Ukraine, especially as we also have to recover from the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic.”
