Very interesting. Without having any inside knowledge or being a Lufthansa expert, I have to assume it would make more sense to make LH404 the A380. The A330 has 221 seats, the B747 has 330 seats, and the A380 has 526 seats. I have a hard time imagining that they want to ramp up capacity by over 300 seats. Even with some aggressive campaigns, that's a lot of seats to fill!

I can't imagine they'll leave the plane sitting in New York for over two days, so I assume it's a roundtrip on Monday and Friday.

PS: Anyone understand why they say "starting February 15?" Isn't February 15 a Tuesday? So much for Monday and Friday service...
