Lufthansa will retire A340-600 faster
Almost three years earlier than planned, Lufthansa will retire its Airbus A340-600s. The German airline’s initial plans indicated 2028, like its other four-engine aircraft, but it is now known that it will happen as early as next year. In a statement published by ch-aviation.com, a Lufthansa spokesperson confirmed that the A340-600 fleet will be retired at the start of the 2025/26 winter season.

Such a shame! Haven’t seen a Lufthansa 340-600 (except for 35k feet where you can just see contrails…)
Saw the -300 a few times though


(DFW 2021 I think)

Anybody know of any remaining A380 flights between the U.S. and Europe anymore? All the Lufthansa, Air France, and BA ones I was looking up just seem to be B748s, or some other large aircraft replacing them :frowning:

Ba still do a380 flights for LAX to LHR
Emirates SFO DXB
Emirates JFK DXB

Hmm, don’t think I wanna go 3 hrs West to LAX just to go that much further East lol. I know DFW had some to FRA and I thought somewhere else on the East coast as well. :thinking:
