Lufthansa will become the third carrier to deploy the Airbus A380 to India, following Singapore Airlines (see here) and Emirates (see here) who enlisted the superjumbo on services to India earlier this year.
Starting on October 26, the German flag carrier will operate a single A380 flight daily from its base in Frankfurt to both Delhi and Mumbai.
