How many planes does Lufthansa have?

At the end of 2022, the Lufthansa Group fleet comprised 710 aircraft (previous year: 713 aircraft).



As of March 2026, the Lufthansa mainline fleet consists of approximately 280 to 295 aircraft, though the wider Lufthansa Group (which includes Swiss, Austrian, Brussels Airlines, and Eurowings) operates a massive combined total of over 710 planes. In early 2026, Lufthansa celebrated its centenary by accelerating the delivery of 25 next-generation jets, including the Airbus A350-1000 and the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. These new additions are part of a multi-billion euro modernization strategy aimed at replacing older, less efficient four-engine planes like the Airbus A340. The fleet is roughly split between short-haul "narrow-body" aircraft like the Airbus A320neo family, which handle the dense European network, and "wide-body" aircraft for intercontinental routes. By 2026, the airline has also finished retrofitting much of its long-haul fleet with the new "Allegris" cabin interior, ensuring a more consistent luxury experience across its diverse array of Boeing and Airbus models flying from its primary hubs in Frankfurt and Munich.
