More than 20 aircraft, most of them large in size, have been discontinued by the German airline • The move is due to the major change expected in the world aviation industry

Europe's largest airline and one of the world's largest and most respected airlines, Lufthansa, announced today that it will stop using six Airbus 380s, the world's largest passenger aircraft, used by individual airlines worldwide and among them. This is an economical, four-engine aircraft and the only one with two floors throughout.

In addition, the company decided to take a similar step on seven Airbus 340 aircraft, a four-body wide-body aircraft and one floor, also considered a less cost-effective aircraft. At the same time, the company announced a similar move to El Al last year, this year's Australian Cantas, Dutch KLM and a few other companies, and will take out five Boeing 747 aircraft, also considered obsolete and cost-effective, though especially popular with aviation enthusiasts.

Lufthansa’s decision points to the imminent change in the world of aviation. Lufthansa understands that the great demand for flights before the Corona Challenge will not return so quickly and the company is choosing to adapt to the new situation as soon as possible. In addition, Lufthansa subsidiaries will also take out aircraft from use. Suisse, who is part of the Lufthansa group, is also expected to make adjustments in the wake of the new situation and may also remove some less lucrative aircraft from its fleet.

"In the near future, we expect to see dramatic changes in the aviation world. Not necessarily these are adverse changes. Airlines may be investing quite a bit in the emphasis on health, cleanliness and new procedures," according to senior industry officials, adding that "the aviation industry will gradually regain time. Going back to planes, but it will happen, we'll see it start towards June-July and end of the year, as vaccine and drug approaches approach, there will already be a significantly more active movement in the sky as things progress as expected and there will be no unusual events.
