Each month LUFTHANSA updates the status of their Business Class retrofit progress across the long haul fleet.   This month’s update confirms that 95 long-haul aircraft now feature the new Business Class cabin.  That means that 5 additional aircraft now sport the new Business Class Cabin as compared to the June Update.   This leaves only 12 long haul aircraft that need to be retrofitted.

Here is the breakdown by Aircraft type and then by specific aircraft registration:
