The Queen’s New Look: Lufthansa’s Boeing 747-8 Joins Centenary Fleet

Germany’s flag carrier, Lufthansa, has introduced a specially painted Boeing 747-8 to commemorate 100 years since the airline’s original founding in 1926. The aircraft received its new livery in San Bernardino, California. Under flight number LH9913, the aircraft will make its way back to Frankfurt on Wednesday, 4th March, and is expected to arrive there on Thursday, 5th March, at around 10 am local time. The milestone marks a century since the creation of Deutsche Luft Hansa, the predecessor to today’s Lufthansa. The jet will operate regular long-haul services, bringing the anniversary design to destinations across the airline’s global network.
