A reduced route network was maintained during the war until 1945 when the company went into liquidation. In 1953, Luftag was founded in Cologne and later renamed Lufthansa. This new German airline began operations in 1955, primarily with propeller aircraft, moving into jets in 1960. In 1997, Lufthansa, Air Canada, SAS, Thai and United Airlines formed the Star Alliance global network. Later that year Lufthansa became a fully privatised airline.
