Okay, I’m not going to lie, this might be the coolest special airline livery project we’ve ever seen.

Speaking of liveries, how about Qatar's new F1 livery!

As for Lufthansa's special livery, 6 aircraft of the same livery seems a bit much, no? A decal indicating its anniversary would've made more sense, but that's just me. Then again, some major ports only get a 1 aircraft type.

What about British Airways' BA100 special liveries? They had three 747s repainted into the iconic Speedbird, Negus, and Landor liveries, alongside an A319 in the BEA livery. I'd personally consider those the coolest special livery project.

Surprised that the anniversary fleet isn't comprised of six different liveries (unlike Allegris), and hopefully this won't be delayed due to "certification issues".

While nice, the aforementioned liveries were really retro liveries.

Some examples of special one-off liveries would be Qatar's F1, Cathay's Asia's World City, Spirit Of Hong Kong, Thai's Royal Barge and so on.

If Allegris is anything to go by the liveries will be flying by the year 2078.

Agree with Samuel Hudson - this is a terrible waste of paint! Think of the environment!!!

If they changed all their aircraft to this, then German airlines would definitely have the most distinctive liveries - this and Condor's beachtowel stripes.

This should have been the new livery, it's nice and modern.

Why bother with a special livery when you can't even get the seats right?

It's unfortunate that 779 is not excepted to get the special colours for obvious reasons heh, now that would look sweet!

Interesting they are doing an A350-900 and an A350-1000. I wonder if one of those was originally intended to be a 777-9?

Can't say I'm a fan of the livery. It might look half-decent on promo graphics at the right angle, but I couldn't work out what was going on in the ground photos. The 100 decal on the side is a bit hidden/subdued too

Well, with my schedule for next year, I might see most, if not all the "specials" next year. Oh, to have a camera with Kodachrome.

I'm glad that no one joked that LH pricing would vary based on the specific aircraft's paint scheme . . . or pre-Allegris aircraft with or without the paint scheme . . . or Allegris aircraft with or without the paint scheme . . . or Allegris privacy seat with the paint scheme versus Allegris window seat without the paint scheme . . . as such a joke would be completely uncalled for.

The real creation of the is 1926 Deutsch Luft Hansa. In 1953 the brand became Lufthansa.

They look great but I still miss that special touch of yellow from the former livery.
