SPECIAL LIVERY - Lufthansa's first Airbus A350-1000 arrives with a special livery

The seventh aircraft with the blue anniversary livery is scheduled to be transferred to Munich this fall

D-AIFA is to be named “Deutschland”

The A350-1000 will be the 700th aircraft delivered by Airbus to the Lufthansa Group

In just a few weeks, Lufthansa’s special anniversary fleet will welcome another addition: The very first A350-1000 that Lufthansa Airlines will take delivery of from Airbus was painted at the Toulouse plant in blue, featuring a white XXL crane and the lettering “1926 | 2026” and “100” - using a total of 432 liters of blue paint and 246 liters of white paint.

The Airbus A350-1000 is scheduled to be transferred from Toulouse to Munich this fall. Until then, several test flights, further work on the aircraft’s interior, and the final acceptance inspection are still pending. The A350-1000 will bear the registration number D-AIFA and the name “Deutschland.” An official naming ceremony is scheduled to take place at a later date. What makes this first A350-1000 special is that it will be the 700th aircraft that Airbus has delivered to the Lufthansa Group.
