Lufthansa special livery to mark centennial anniversary

Lufthansa Airlines is presenting an iconic special livery to mark its 100th anniversary in 2026. Starting in December, a new Boeing 787-9 will proudly carry the symbol of Lufthansa’s unique identity around the world: the crane.

The special livery features a blue fuselage with a white crane hovering above it, its wings merging into the wings of the aircraft. The wings of the aircraft thus virtually become the wings of the crane. An unprecedented design that combines movement and elegance, tradition and the future. Designed as a trademark by graphic designer and architect Otto Firle in 1918, the crane has become Lufthansa’s unmistakable distinguishing feature worldwide over the decades.
