Until then, several test flights, further work on the aircraft\u2019s interior, and the final acceptance inspection are still pending. The A350-1000 will bear the registration number D-AIFA and the name \u201cDeutschland.\u201d An official naming ceremony is scheduled to take place at a later date. What makes this first A350-1000 special is that it will be the 700th aircraft that Airbus has delivered to the Lufthansa Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a length of 73.80 meters, the Airbus A350-1000 is exactly seven meters longer than its smaller brother, the Airbus A350-900. This long-haul aircraft can accommodate a total of 300 passengers across four travel classes: First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy, and Economy Class. Fifteen aircraft of this type have been ordered and will be delivered by 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new A350-1000 is the seventh aircraft in the Lufthansa fleet to feature a special livery commemorating the airline\u2019s 100th anniversary. Already in service on long-haul routes are an Airbus A350-900, an Airbus A380, a Boeing 787-9, and a Boeing 747-8, as well as two short- and medium-haul Airbus A320neo aircraft featuring this special design. The special livery is attracting a great deal of attention and enthusiasm from passengers and plane spotters worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"261\" src=\"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1920_ai-pho-0251-06-a350-1000lufthansamsn799rollout-028-edit.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-35976\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1920_ai-pho-0251-06-a350-1000lufthansamsn799rollout-028-edit.jpg 800w, https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1920_ai-pho-0251-06-a350-1000lufthansamsn799rollout-028-edit-300x98.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In just a few weeks, Lufthansa\u2019s special anniversary fleet will welcome another addition: The very first A350-1000 that Lufthansa Airlines will take delivery of from Airbus was painted at the Toulouse plant in blue, featuring a white XXL crane and the lettering \u201c1926 | 2026\u201d and \u201c100\u201d &#8211; using a total of 432 liters of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":35974,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[143,114],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35973","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-airlines","category-international-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1920_ai-pho-0251-05-a350-1000lufthansamsn799-demaskingandretouch-080-edit.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35973","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35973"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35973\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35977,"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35973\/revisions\/35977"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35974"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35973"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35973"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35973"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
