List of aircraft operated by Lufthansa From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lufthansa operates a mainline fleet of 296 aircraft, consisting of Airbus narrow and wide-body and Boeing wide-body aircraft.[1][2] The mainline fleet is composed of seven different aircraft families: the Airbus A320 and A320neo families, Airbus A330, Airbus A340, Airbus A350, Airbus A380, Boeing 747 and Boeing 787. This list excludes Lufthansa brand subsidiaries Lufthansa CityLine, Lufthansa City Airlines and Lufthansa Cargo.

Additionally, Lufthansa currently has orders placed for further new Airbus A320neo, A350, and Boeing 777X series aircraft. Up until 2027, these deliveries will replace all A330 and A340 series aircraft alongside the remaining Boeing 747-400s.[3]
