Lufthansa Group taking delivery of 23 new aircraft

On February 7th, 2014, Lufthansa’s tenth Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental landed at Frankfurt Airport. The “dash-8” is just one of seven brand-new airliners that will be joining the Group in February and March. Over the next few weeks, these ultra-modern jets will be arriving like pearls on a necklace at Frankfurt: alongside three Boeing 747-8s, Lufthansa has acquired one Airbus A380, one A330 and two A320. In addition, Germanwings will receive an A319 and Lufthansa Cargo will take delivery of a Boeing 777F freighter. All in all, the Group expects to receive 23 ultra-modern commercial aircraft this year.
