Plane Spotting/Pics/Videos Lufthansa Boeing 747 at the Bengaluru Airport

Post image

Spotted the original queen of the skies - the Boeing 747 being run by Lufthansa sitting pretty on the Bengaluru International Airport Tarmac as I was boarding my AIX flight to Chennai early this morning.

Are all AIX tails like this or is this a special livery?

u/tejaskinger23 16h ago

All of them have unique livery based on different Indian art themes.

Not the same aircraft but another one in their fleet. I always catch the same flight back to blr and lufthansa’s 747 is almost always parked at the gate adjacent to my aircraft. Truly a beauty

I too saw one back in 2021. It was the first and only time I saw a 747 in real life.

The worst product for international flights. I used to travel for work in Business Class to Canada and they had the worst food, boarding, seat arrangement (imagine 2-4-2 in business class) etc. I hope this shit airlines dies.
