Lufthansa Cargo’s 1st 777 Freighter has just been painted in Portland, Oregon and is receiving her finishing touches at Paine Field in Everett, Washington. She’s scheduled to arrive home on November 1 to join the fleet and to mark the occasion Lufthansa Cargo is running a contest that will allow 10 lucky winners to attend the ceremonies.
The contest is being held on their Facebook Page and entry requirements are fairly simply. All you have to do is submit a 1-minute video or a creative “Selfie” (Picture of yourself) showing why YOU should be one of the winners. Hopefully Miley Cyrus stays away from posting any photos here…. 😉
You need to post your photo or video on Lufthansa Cargo’s Facebook Wall or send it to them via personal message on Facebook. You have until October 23 to enter. The 10 winners as determined by LH Cargo will be invited to attend.
Please note that you must arrange your own travel to and from Frankfurt as well as accommodations while in Frankfurt. LH Cargo is only providing an invitation to the event.
Good Luck!

If you have net yet heard, a variety of Air Traffic Control Unions in Europe were threatening work stoppages tomorrow which would obviously lead to stress for passengers throughout the continent.
Fortunately most unions have called off the work stoppages but leave it to a few French unions to continue with plans for strikes.
Most European airlines will likely experience flight disruptions tomorrow. Lufthansa has suggested that it may need to cancel flights operated to and from Marseilles and Lyon, however they believe that flights to and from Paris’ Charles de Gaulle should remain unaffected.
If your plans include flights involving France, you may want to contact our airline to determine what your options are.

Lufthansa has launched a seasonal Business Class Fare Sale for travel between Germany and the USA. Fares are quite attractive and start as low as €1888 between Munich and Boston and reach as high as €2749 for flights between Munich and Los Angeles. The fare covers all of Lufthansa’s NORTH AMERICAN destinations, so Mexico City and Canadian cities are involved in the fare promotion.
What is nice about this fare sale is that it covers the main Holiday travel periods of Thanksgiving (23-30 November) , Christmas/New Year (23 December – 2 January) and even Easter for 2014 (12-27 April).
The terms are not to complicated. 28 days advance ticket purchase and a Saturday night stay is required. Tickets can be rebooked for €240 but are non-refundable.
For those of you expecting a fare sale for travel starting in the USA, I expect that one will be announced in a matter of days, if not sooner. So far Lufthansa has launched Premium Class sales from Great Britain and mainland Europe, so the USA is next in line for Holiday Travel deals.
