"Lufthansa will celebrate its centennial with what the airline describes as an "anniversary fleet." In practical terms, that means a group of planes with distinctive livery spotlighting the airline reaching the 100-year mark. That includes a large "100" on both the left sides and the bottoms of the aircraft involved, along with the years "1926 / 2026" on the right side of the fuselage."
"The first Lufthansa plane to join the anniversary fleet hasn't arrived yet; a Boeing 787-9 scheduled to arrive in Frankfurt later this year will be the first plane to use this livery. The Boeing 787-9 with the new livery, registered as D-ABPU, is scheduled to begin regular flights in January. Earlier this month, Lufthansa described this plane as "a flying ambassador for the 100th founding anniversary." It's one of several Boeing Dreamliners that either have joined or will be joining Lufthansa's existing fleet."
Deutsche Luft Hansa was founded in 1926 as the precursor to Lufthansa. Lufthansa has connected Germany to much of the rest of the world in the years since the 1950s. Lufthansa will celebrate its centennial with an anniversary fleet featuring distinctive livery that includes a large "100" on left sides and bottoms and the years "1926 / 2026" on the right fuselage. The first plane to receive the livery will be a Boeing 787-9 arriving in Frankfurt later this year; that aircraft, registered D-ABPU, is scheduled to begin regular flights in January. The anniversary fleet will include Airbus models such as the A320, A350-900, A350-1000 and A380, plus a Boeing 747-8, with all aircraft to carry the livery by the end of 2026.
