Emission lines are frequently observed in the spectra of the high luminosity stars, indicating the presence of extended atmospheric envelopes. We are investigating the physical characteristics (differential expansion velocity, density, extension, mass loss) and the origin of these envelopes in relation to the high luminosity of the parent star, and its evolutionary stage. Some results are presented concerning Eta Car, S Dor, HD 34664, P Cyg, AG and HR Car, and two WR stars.
