German airline Lufthansa will mark a new milestone in aviation on April 30, 2025, with the first flight of the iconic Airbus A380 to Denver, Colorado. This event represents a significant step not only for the airline but also for Denver International Airport, which will receive a regular flight with this massive aircraft for the first time.
The flight, which currently operates five times weekly with an Airbus A350, will depart daily from Munich at 11:15 a.m. and arrive in Denver at 1:45 p.m. (local time). The return flight will leave Denver at 4:15 p.m. and arrive in Munich at 10:50 a.m. the following day. This daily route will be exclusively operated by the Airbus A380, which provides a unique flying experience thanks to its spacious and comfortable design.

“The Airbus A380 service to Denver is not only a first for Lufthansa but also for the airport itself. Passengers, visitors, and crews love this aircraft for the flying experience it offers and its sense of spaciousness. Moreover, the A380 provides more premium seats than any other aircraft,” said Heiko Reitz, Chief Commercial Officer of Lufthansa Airlines.
Thanks to Lufthansa’s partnership with Star Alliance member United Airlines, passengers will have access to 170 additional destinations from Denver, including Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Honolulu.

Lufthansa’s Airbus A380 fleet features a total of 509 seats distributed across four classes: 8 in First Class, 78 in Business Class, 52 in Premium Economy, and 371 in Economy.
For the summer 2025 season, the airline will have eight Airbus A380s operating from its Munich hub, serving six intercontinental destinations: New York (JFK), Boston, Washington, Los Angeles, Delhi, and, of course, Denver.
Lufthansa has been operating direct flights from Munich to Denver for nine years and from Frankfurt for 25 years. In the summer of 2025, a total of four daily flights will be offered: two from Munich and two from Frankfurt, further solidifying the airline’s commitment to this important market.
