Lufthansa Welcomes First Airbus A350-1000 Marking 700th Airbus Milestone with Centennial Livery
Lufthansa has taken delivery of its first Airbus A350-1000 , marking the arrival of the largest twin-engine aircraft ever to join the airline's fleet. The aircraft is notable not only because it introduces a new flagship widebody, but also because it represents the 700th Airbus aircraft delivered to the Lufthansa Group. Before entering commercial service, the aircraft will remain in Toulouse to complete a series of test flights, final cabin preparations, and acceptance inspections before being transferred to its Munich base later this year. An official naming ceremony will then take place, with the aircraft receiving the name "Deutschland" and carrying the registration D-AIFA.
