The end of an exciting “A380-day” at the Peninsula Hotel

The arrival of the A380 on Monday, March 19th brought about great excitement to New York. A select few passengers of the A380 flight from Frankfurt were invited to a cocktail reception at the Peninsula Hotel in Manhattan. The invited guests included several VIPs, the press, as well as Airbus and Lufthansa employees. A pianist helped to create a wonderful relaxing atmosphere. It was a perfect way to enjoy the end of an exciting day.

The room quickly filled with conversation where guests exchanged their impressions of the A380. Jens Bischof, Lufthansa Vice President of the Americas, greeted the group and highlighted some information and facts on the “big bird.” Guests then proceeded to enjoy refreshments, delicious food and mini desserts.

The arrival of the A380 has been a success. We expect and look forward to the same rewarding experience in the fall!
