Award-winning creative agency Custom Media K.K. will manage all social media in Japan for Lufthansa German Airlines, which is part of the Cologne-based group that operates the biggest fleet and carries more passengers than any other airline in Europe.

Lufthansa is a premier global brand. Custom Media is very proud to be the airline’s social media marketing partner in Japan. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to solidify and extend Lufthansa’s strong brand presence with users of its services in Japanese.
