In the future, only one tariff committee will negotiate with the German flight operations of the Lufthansa Group on behalf of the pilots. So far, each airline has had its own commission to negotiate wages, social benefits and other issues. The approach of the Cockpit Association is also a reaction to the fact that Lufthansa is establishing more and more subsidiary airlines.

According to Marcel Gröls, board member of the Cockpit Association, it took around a year before it was possible to negotiate a uniform tariff commission for pilots from Lufthansa, Lufthansa Cargo, Cityline, Eurowings, Eurowings Discover, Germanwings and, in the future, City Airline. This improves the bargaining position for employees. Gröls speaks in the communication of "a powerful tariff committee".

The reasons for the decision to standardize include the following: “The pilots are already among the best organized and, rightly so, the best paid professional groups in the country. But what is better is the enemy of what is good, and one association is also constantly checking its processes and looking for reserves for even better efficiency. (...) My sincere thanks also go to the Lufthansa Group, whose addictive founding of more and more subsidiaries has convinced even the last of us that only consistent unity helps against so much diffusion".
