i don't know why you call it weird,that is just a beautiful airplane,i love it!

[@julosx]

The 340 is the real son of both the 707 and the DC-8, except it's way safer…

[@MillionMilesMarc]

Don't get me wrong, by weird I mean unusual. It's actually one of my favorite aircraft type !

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

@@julosx safer thank to the era and the advanced of tegnology it was created.

[@kaclni2004]

that airplane A340-600 is massive,i love it!

[@r12004rewy]

Just fantastic that Lufthansa have continued to operate the A346 certainly in my view the 2nd best looking passenger aircraft of all time (apart from Concorde that has to be number one) love the configuration with the lower deck toilets. Be a sad day when all the 340s have been withdrawn from service, unfortunately for Airbus the type wasn't a great success, it deserved to do better.

[@julosx]

The 346 is a mighty jet, Airbus's response to the latest Boeing's 747-400.

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

It was in in moment until Etops extended the wasy twin could travel. When that happens, this types of planes began to dominate the market thank to( we all know). If it was made, let say for example like 3 years before the 747 biggin to fly, it would definitely could have sell better.

[@trypanosome]

Flew this aircraft many years ago from LAX to Munich. Loved it.

[@sopmodcataroo3307]

Saw one of these flying over after leaving Logan couple days ago! Really is a treat to see these gorgeous planes in use!

[@basstrip73]

I love the A340-600. It's the best looking widebody in service. Long and sleek with an elegance that sets it apart from the 747, A380 and the many dual-engined widebodies. The A380 is squat and downright ugly compared to the A340-600.

[@r12004rewy]

Totally agree on looks of the A340, but the 380 is just incredible to fly on, had the opportunity to fly BA 380 Business class a few months ago, just amazing.

[@basstrip73]

@@r12004rewy Agree... it can't compete with the in-flight comfort level offered by the newer generation of aircraft.

[@TripReportaviation]

What a lovely flight experience! The highlight of this plane, to me, is the downstair lavatory :) It actually was in a good condition.

[@MillionMilesMarc]

Thank you, I agree with you!

[@lucasadventures_]

Such an awesome trip report! Cool how LH is the only airline with the lower deck lavatories! You got so much great footage of this flight from Logan to Munich! Awesome job!!!!

[@MillionMilesMarc]

Thank you mate !

[@lucasadventures_]

@@MillionMilesMarc Anytime!!! Loved your trip report so much ✈️!

[@joesos]

I flew with Thomas Cook on an A330-200 from San Francisco to Manchester and back in 2018 and those planes had the unique (and extremely cool) downstairs lavatories. Unfortunately TC no longer exists 💔

[@jodybradshaw3988]

Flew aboard 340-600 from Charlotte to Frankfurt in 2014. Was a very pleasant flight the restrooms down stairs is a clever use of space. Not to mention what a beautiful machine it was/is.

[@kaclni2004]

beautiful flight! what a landing like a big bird!

[@mxyzptlyk]

The A330 and A340 are the only sensible choice for flying long haul in Economy Class. The outer seats with the two configuration means that couples don't have to crawl over the person in the third seat as on the A350 and 777/787. LCCs not included.

[@kleeblattchen38]

yeah i don't get why a lot of people prefer 3-3-3... a common argument is that 3-3-3 makes the cabin feel more spacious but i don't see how... 2-4-2 is literally the most conveniant because everyone only ever have to cross 1 seat at most to get to the aisle... and your aforementioned arguments as well ofc... one configuration i really fancy but only exist with japan airlines and ANA to my knowledge ist the 2-4-3 layout... they use it on some of their 777 (which is generous) but you could obviously apply that to normal 9 abreast planes as well... this really gives you a lot of choices to configure your seating...

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

@@kleeblattchen38 eh, if you are a family of 3, that were the point goes. So no, is not that 3-3-3 is preferred by everyone, but that there are circumstances that change things.

[@andyn_yyc9721]

If i could and would fly the a340 again! Miss those birds!

[@scorpyonn]

Beautiful planes!

[@viniciusmagnoni6492]

Weird? It is the most beautiful turbofan plane ever built.

[@theproboss7964]

Wonderful flight( as always I like the lower deck lavatories). What is a bit sad is that LH doesn’t serve a full breakfast meal anymore🥺

[@francoisgagnon5335]

Speaking of breakfast, it's still less disgusting than the savory pastries (I don't even know what they're called) that some North American airlines serve as a pre-arrival snack. A simple croissant would be much better.

[@alderlake12th]

lower deck pretty same as 747 lol

[@marcambouphaure]

Nice video about LH from Boston, the take off view is stunning 😍

[@gerryward9627]

Flew an A346 FRA-YYZ several years ago with LH. Loved the plane. However, the food portions were so small my nephew and I broke into his Dad's chocolate bar, we were so hungry.

[@Leif-iq4jz]

Honestly, the more I see the new Lufthansa Livery, the more I miss the old one

[@dopeintegra83]

The A340-600 was the longest passenger plane until the 747-8i which is about 5ft longer.

[@Jason-xb3jh]

Weird? I think it’s beautiful. Wow buddy!

[@donald190]

I agree One of the most beautiful planes

[@Jason-xb3jh]

@@donald190 👍✨

[@Jason-xb3jh]

@@donald190 Another beauty (in my book) is the L-1011 TriStar.

[@donald190]

@@Jason-xb3jh absolutely Love the Tristar , my fave 3 engine airplane with the aerodynamic intake on the tail Not to mention the fantastic Rolls RB211

[@Jason-xb3jh]

@@donald190 Agreed. Compared to the MD-11 or the DC-10, I’ve always felt the TriStar was better looking in how they designed the tail and third engine placement. Plus it’s just an amazing piece of engineering and innovation. And yes….those RR engines. 🙂 One of many reasons that I am a big fan of the 757 also. Another beauty. ✨

[@user-tb3lk9et1b]

Still flying the a340-600 on the BOS-EDDM Route as of December 2023

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Thank you for sharing your trip here to Europe. That was really nice to walk up to a model of the 747 and then look outside at a 747!! I laughed! LOL..Hahahaha, so nice!!And yes, you know as well, we have to get away to the lounge. Even if you are flying in Economy Class, you have to go to the lounge and sit down to have some nice food with champagne, great wine or great drink with some "top shelf" liquor.

[@LMays-cu2hp]

I take it that flight was full? Well, I hope that person next to did not want to talk to you all the time!!

[@MillionMilesMarc]

Thank you for your comment ! Yeah I really liked having a 747 model and the real one just in front of the window at the same time

[@LMays-cu2hp]

When you took your video of the aircraft as you left, it looks like the additional jet bridge in the front section was for First Class and the front section of Business Class there to depart off of the aircraft. Again, thank you for sharing your trip!

[@LMays-cu2hp]

@@MillionMilesMarc Yes, many of us aviation people miss the 747 on the passenger side as a whole usage. I know only a few companies use them still and the most are used for cargo these days. But flying is getting back to being good in general.

[@strafrag1]

Hope Lufthansa bring the A380 to Boston 😭😭 originally gonna be here since late Mar 2020

[@r12004rewy]

I believe Lufthansa are returning 380s in 2023, I just hope they continue to fly the 340 600

[@chengyoujiang6076]

@@r12004rewy But not sure whether Boston route A380 is gonna be considered again 😭 the reason why they wanted to do so in 2019 was because unprecedented passenger growth from Boston year on year

[@r12004rewy]

Hope they do! My last flight to Boston was on a BA 777

[@chengyoujiang6076]

​@a340 fan turns out they do ! BOS - MUC will become A380 starting from June this year

[@linesided]

Jeez terrible job by the rampie waving him home lol. I could tell the plane was right of the center line before it cleared the jet bridge when the rampie finally woke up!

[@alderlake12th]

WTF you say a340-600 is weird :)))) When it actually better than B777 almost a340 landings so smooth

[@scottbrady6795]

Flew on this exact aircraft from JFK-MUC on June 11th and the same lavatory that was INOP in this video was INOP for my flight. When do you fly?

[@christasmith6004]

hi a flight on an a340-600 is on the bucket list, when will Lufthansa discontinue these?

[@duckson-kellymfiengi5176]

19:15 what's that? Is that a stair case? Didn't know A340s had one!?

What seat is it

[@fundaa.7997]

hi which rows/seats are the next to the stairs/toilet?

[@hijugontis]

sounds like you got personal beef with the a340, why such negative epithets for the type? damn. i don’t get it..

[@MillionMilesMarc]

Well weird is not negative to me, it's a very unusual aircraft, both very thin and unusually long

[@dylell1]

You're flying economy but had access to the lounge??

[@nanidhf12]

When did u fly

[@kaclni2004]

do u really think this airplane is narrow?

[@ducheau100]

I am surprised they haven't upgraded the business class cabin. Looks awful, old and no privacy

[@Fishfingers232]

Can someone explain Lufthansa's fetish for quad-jets?

[@r12004rewy]

They still have plenty of life left in them and more popular with passengers A321 or A380 across the Atlantic, now let's think about that for a few seconds.

[@julosx]

@@r12004rewy No problem with a A380, it's still a quad jet and the latest ones are pretty new. Can't wait to fly a Singapore one next October between Frankfurt and Changi.

[@roadracer1584]

I'm so happy I can sit in my comfortably easy chair and watch other poor wretches deal with the misery of air travel. Flying these days sucks unless you're wealthy and can fly first class or you have your own private jet. The unwashed mobs get herded like cattle on fully booked flights.
