Lufthansa is shrinking its fleet to counter rapidly rising fuel prices.
Gone are the airline's 27 Mitsubishi CRJ900 regional jets operated by its Lufthansa CityLine regional affiliate. Lufthansa's four remaining Airbus A340-600s, with their unique downstairs toilets, are next: Their retirement is set for the end of the summer season. And, at the same time, the carrier will say goodbye to two of its last Boeing 747-400s.
Lufthansa plans to retire its six remaining 747-400s in 2027.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
