The Federal Association of German Airlines (BDF) has announced the election of Gregor Schleussner to its Executive Board, effective 1 September 2025. Schleussner, who became Chief Financial and Chief Human Resources Officer at Lufthansa Cargo on 1 July, succeeds Frank Bauer and will represent Lufthansa Cargo within the BDF leadership.
Schleussner’s appointment underscores Lufthansa Cargo’s strategic role in the German aviation industry. Alongside him, Dr. Kay Lindemann, Head of Corporate Policy at Lufthansa Group, was also elected to the BDF Executive Board during the by-elections.
BDF President Peter Gerber thanked outgoing member Frank Bauer for his contributions and welcomed the new appointees: “We are very much looking forward to working with Gregor Schleussner and Dr. Kay Lindemann. With their expertise and experience, both are excellent additions to our Executive Board.”
