And this is only the beginning. Expect British Airways and Japan Airlines to jump in with 747-8 orders within the next two years, since these two airlines have less issues with slot restrictions at their home airports.

I think I mentioned it once, but got away with it.

Lufthansa hasn't cancelled their A380 orders...yet.

They won't. They need both aircraft. One type for the 420 passenger, the other for the 550 passenger niche. And if Lufthansa continues to do well, the will probably even order the 650 passenger A380-900 in a few years.

Lufthansa also ordered 6 A340s as well as the 747-8i. I guess Lufthansa wants to exactly match the aircraft to the route!
