Due to the anticipated demand for air travel during the next summer travel season, Lufthansa will return all of its stored Airbus A340-600 aircraft to service.
A Lufthansa spokeswoman stated that the airline, which has 10 Airbus A340-600s in its fleet, will reactivate the aircraft in Q2 2023 “to satisfy the increasing demand for long-haul flights for summer 2023.”
According to the company’s spokesman, five aircraft will be based at Frankfurt Airport (FRA), and the other five will be based at Munich Airport (MUC).
According to data from planespotters.net, six Lufthansa Airbus A340-600s are currently marked as storage. One plane is kept in FRA and another in MUC, while another is presently at Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
According to data from flightradar24.com, D-AIHU had been flying since December 2022, but its final flight was on December 27, and it hasn’t been flying since.
