It also noted that other destinations for the new 787-9s will soon be announced for the first half of 2022.
According to Simple Flying, Lufthansa has yet to receive its new aircraft, and delivery is still months away. The airline was initially expected to take possession of its Dreamliner order by Christmas 2021, but due to quality-related restrictions imposed by the FAA, the delivery date may be pushed into 2022.
