Continuing its tradition of celebrating Oktoberfest each year, Lufthansa has announced plans to bring this great festival aboard several flights over the coming days and weeks.

Beginning today, September 15,  Lufthansa will have certain flights operating from Munich ‘outfitted’ with special crews.  These crews, known as ‘Trachten Teams’ will be dressed in traditional Bavarian attire and will bring a bit of Oktoberfest to each of these special flights.  Something new for this year, passengers filing within Europe will also have an opportunity to experience LH’s Oktoberfest hospitality.

The following photo shows the variety of attire that you’ll find in Munich and on the special Tracthen flights.    From left to right:  Munich Customer Service Staff,  Long Haul Flight Attendants (center 2), Lufthansa CityLine Flight attendants.
