German airline Deutsche Lufthansa said on Monday (17 January) that it was not in talks to take over rival Swiss International Air Lines, denying a report in Swiss newspaper Sonntagszeitung.

According to the report, Lufthansa had contacted some of Swiss's shareholders in December 2004 regarding an alliance.

Lufthansa is not holding talks with Swiss or the airline's shareholders, said a Lufthansa spokesperson.
