| Author's remark: | Rare visit of Lufthansa's Airbus A340-600 to Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (CSIA) Mumbai. This flight (LH756) from Frankfurt (FRA) to Mumbai (BOM) is usually operated by Lufthansa's Boeing 747-400 or Boeing 747-8i. The flight was operated by 10 year old airframe, D-AIHZ. She was delivered to Lufthansa in May, 2009 and is named after the famous German City, Leipzig. D-AIHZ had "FC Bayern München" special livery from July 2017 to March 2018. Over the years, Virgin Atlantic, Lufthansa, Etihad and Qatar Airways operated their Airbus A340-600s to Mumbai. But now, only Lufthansa operates them to BOM, that too very rarely. The Airbus A340-600 is a very unique aircraft. Its sheer length when seen from up-close truly blows your mind. I really hope they keep flying for few more years and keep visiting Mumbai Airport. :) |
