Lufthansa took delivery of its first Airbus A350-1000 in Toulouse on 10 November 2026. The widebody is the 700th Airbus delivered to the Lufthansa Group and carries a special livery marking 100 years of Lufthansa.
The aircraft will be based in Munich and is earmarked for long-haul routes including Tokyo, Shanghai and Singapore. Its Allegris cabin will seat 300 passengers across four classes: First, Business, Premium Economy and Economy.
The delivery adds a new variant to a group fleet that already spans the Airbus A220 to the A380. Lufthansa was the launch operator of the A321, A320neo and A340-200. Airbus said the A350 family had secured 1,628 orders from 70 customers worldwide by the end of October 2026.
