Yankee Tango lifts off runway 24R at Palma De Mallorca, the only 747 presence at the airport these days.
It's the start of the Easter holidays 2022, after two years of pent up "stay at home" recommendations, the heave is on, especially in Germany to getback to the beach & sun.
Lufthansa operated two "heavies " from Munich & Frankfurt, usually seen on long haul services to Palma de Mallorca to cater for the extra demand, much like the did in 2021.
The Boeing 747 flight from Frankfurt :
LH 1158 - Frankfurt Airport (FRA) 12:35 - Palma De Mallorca (PMI) 14:40 - 02h05m
LH 1159 - Palma De Mallorca (PMI) 16:10 - Frankfurt Airport (FRA) 18:30 - 02h20m
** these flights had an extra touch of excitement as Lufthansa's Boeing 747 in retro livery did the honours - D-ABYT, "the Yankee-Tango" **
The Munich Airbus A350-900 flight :
LH 1796 - Munich Airport (MUC) 10:50 - Palma De Mallorca (PMI) 13:00 - 02h10m
LH 1797 - Palma De Mallorca (PMI) 14:30 - Munich Airport (MUC) 16:36 - 02h05m
these flights were operated by D-AIXL.
Lufthansa began operating its new Boeing 787-9 on short haul flights between Frankfurt & Munich for crew training purposes on Wednesday 19th October 2022.
The first aircraft, D-ABPA "Piper Alpha " arrived in Frankfurt, Germany in late August 2022 & completed some cabin changes from its original Hainan specifications where the plane was originally destined. The first of 32 #Dreamliners Lufthansa
Selected flights between October 19th to October 31st 2022 will operate between FRA & MUN, up to three rotations, LH96/ 101, then 106/111 & 114/119, a big upgrade from the usual A320.
Following these few weeks of domestic flights, the "Berlin" will be introduced on long-haul services to New York (Newark) beginning 1st December 2022.
The #Lufthansa 787-9 is configured with 26 business class, 21 premium economy & 247 in economy.
Thanks very much to the very friendly & accomadating cabin & flight crew of LH106 on 19/10/22 who made my trip very memorable.
Großes lob an die crew, die in 30 minuten die gäste versorgt hat und gleichzeitig auch noch zeit für uns hatte.
