Historical Background

The Airbus A380 is the world’s largest passenger aircraft, developed by Airbus to serve high-density long-haul routes with unmatched passenger capacity and comfort. Entering service in the late 2000s, it features a full-length double-deck cabin, four high-bypass turbofan engines and advanced aerodynamics, making it one of the most iconic aircraft ever built.

Lufthansa introduced the A380 into service in 2010, operating it primarily from its Munich hub on long-haul intercontinental routes. The aircraft D-AIMH, named “Düsseldorf”, is part of Lufthansa’s revived A380 fleet and has been selected to carry the airline’s special “100 Jahre” livery. This design commemorates the founding of Lufthansa’s historical predecessor in 1926 and features a dramatic crane motif that spans the fuselage, symbolising continuity between the airline’s heritage and modern global operations. The aircraft is part of a wider centenary celebration fleet that includes multiple Lufthansa aircraft types in matching anniversary liveries.
