Therefore, it is only natural that Mumbai becomes the third destination worldwide to receive the most modern and environmental friendly aircraft, the Lufthansa Airbus A350-900”, says Wolfgang Will, Senior Director South Asia, Lufthansa Group Airlines. “Having made India home for over half a century, it’s equally important for us to cultivate long lasting trustful relations reflective of our ‘More Indian Than You Think’ commitment.

To mark first flights passengers on the new aircraft on board LH764 and LH765 from Munich and Mumbai were given a special commemorative certificate and an iPad cover, specially handcrafted by economically disadvantaged women of Purkal Stree Shakti Samiti.
