Lufthansa B747-400M registered D-ABTC on the Frankfurt-Athens flight

The scheduled LH 3382/3383 Lufthansa flight from FRA (Frankfurt, Germany) to Athens was operated today, out of a sudden, by a Boeing Boeing 747-430M registered D-ABTC instead of the usual Airbus A321! If I am not mistaken this is the first Lufthansa B747 to visit Athens airport.

Last Lufthansa flight to/from Athens with Airbus A300

Lufthansa performed today it's last schedule flight to/from Athens with the Airbus A300 plane. It was flight LH 3382/3383 from/to FRA (Frankfurt, Germany). From now on, all flights of Lufthansa will be operated with Airbus A320/A321 planes, as the A300s are being retired. The A300 has been used by Lufthansa in ATH/LGAV airport since it's opening in 2001 and as the pilot said on his last departure "it has been always a pleasure to fly to Athens, thank you all". The last ever flight of a Lufthansa Airbus A300 is scheduled to be LH 3853 from FCO (Rome, Italy) to FRA on July 1st 2009.
