I am trying to schedule a trip to Germany in June 2013 that will allow me to fly both an A380 and 747-8. My plan was to fly SFO-FRA on the A380 and then FRA-IAD on the 747-8. When I try to book the FRA-IAD portion, I cannot find any 747-8 flights loaded into Lufthansa's website. Any idea if they are being redeployed on different routes, or if the schedule will be updated at some point in the future? thanks!

So far LH has only received three 747-8's, so that's definitely not enough to commit for every FRA-IAD flight.
My guess is they don't have 100% clarity on what equipment they'll have in service for next June.
I'm seeing LH 418 uses the 747-8 some days right now, but all I see for next June is 747-4. Probably too far out for them to commit -4 vs -8.
