要点
  • This will actually be the second time we say goodbye to this iconic plane as they aslready tried to phase it out before the pandemic but then the delayed Boeing 777 and fleet planning made it re-enter service for another five years.
  • The special thing about the A340-600 was of course the way that that it was stretched in order to increase capacity but also the unique design of having a whole battery of lavatories (and a crew rest) in the lower deck of Economy Class.
  • Lufthansa had the A340-600 in a Four-class configuration including First Class and I last flew this aircraft )in First) from Frankfurt to Hong Kong in 2023.
  • The airline even has a special campaign that you can send a message and they will carry it in some form on the place this coming Monday when the long bird makes its final landing at Frankfurt Airport.
  • After 23 years of journeys, countless take-offs and landings, and millions of memories – we want to hear from you.
