FRANKFURT\u2013<\/strong> Lufthansa (LH)<\/a> has confirmed that its long-anticipated Allegris cabin retrofits for the Airbus A350 fleet will finally begin in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The decision comes after several delays, as Lufthansa has been focused on deploying new aircraft with factory-installed Allegris cabins before turning to retrofits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lufthansa Confirms Timeline For A350 Retrofits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lufthansa stated that its Airbus A350 retrofits with Allegris interiors will officially begin in 2027. The program will cover the existing A350-900 fleet, ensuring consistency across both newly delivered and older aircraft. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Munich (MUC) and Frankfurt (FRA) acting as primary hubs for the airline\u2019s A350 operations, travelers will need to wait until 2027 to experience the full Allegris product across the existing fleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New deliveries of the A350 with Allegris are expected to continue in the interim, bridging the gap until retrofits begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s look at other aircraft types operated by Lufthansa and see the retrofit status of these aircraft. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
