Examining what planes make this massive operation chug along, additionally why some older aircraft types have remained.

    The A 340-600 is still the most beautiful looking airplane ever built (except Concorde and Tu 144).

    I'm hoping that one day I have the opportunity to fly on a Lufthansa 747 or any 747 passenger aircraft before I miss my opportunity to do so because this is a big dream and goal for me to do, because I am a massive 747 fan/enthusiast and something I want to be able to do considering how iconic the Boeing 747 is, also this is a first for me being the first like and comment, lets go 747

    2:10 Slight correction: LH doesn't operate the A330-200 variant (only it's subsidiary Discover which is not subject of the video). Also, the A321ceo's include the older -100 variants, actively flying around Europe.

    I've flown with Lufthansa on their B747-8i between Chicago and Frankfurt (my first and only time on a 747), and on their A340-600 between Frankfurt and Dubai, all back in 2014. The A340s were already showing their age even back then, but as an aviation enthusiast, still very fun to fly on.

    The Queen of the skies, B 747 is quite nice, even though the cabin is quite noisy (even in business) - but for me the best is A 380, the King of the skies. Pretty quiet cabin and lots of space for the passengers in all classes. The crews I asked are also happy with the A 380. I am happy Lufthansa is bringing back the A 380!

    Considering my last B-747 flight was in 1992, I need to make an effort to board one of those again. If they fly them out of Chicago, there is a possibility in the next 2-3 years.

    • @johnzet1998
      @johnzet1998 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think they fly the -8 out of Chicago to Frankfurt actually. And considering that Chicago is quite a huge airport, I guess they will do so for some more years😊😉

    I think it is possible that Lufthansa would order the Airbus A330-900s to replace its aging A330-300s and Boeing 787-10 Dreamliners to expand its long-haul fleet and to replace its aging A380s and 747s, in which the former can be allocated to Lufthansa Group subsidiaries.

Lufthansa needs to refurbish it's A380-800 fleet (including A380-800s in storage) inside & out thoroughly, meaning heavy MRO . . . and reinstate the airframes back into active revenue service . . . all refurbished A380-800 cabin will feature 453 seats in a typical 3-class configuration . . . full service flag carriers like Lufthansa needs to restructure it's existing routes & consider operating flights from a second base of operations in a foreign country with relaxed laws . . . for e.g. Dubai, UAE . . . Frankfurt & Munich will continue providing connections to the U.S. mainland & within EU as it has been doing, since the full service flag carrier very inception back in the 1920s . . . to start with Lufthansa can delegate a fleet of 62 - 69 wide body & narrow body jets that will operate flights to & from Dubai, UAE only . . . thus providing maximum connectivity to destinations worldwide that wouldn't be possible from Frankfurt or Munich or Stuttgart . . .

As for A330, Lufthansa has started replacing them with 787-9 as soon as each 787-9 is delivered and put into service. So far, Lufthansa has received 5 787-9 early that were built for now-defunct Hainan Airlines.
