The Fanhansa logo was also used at the 2014 World Cup, which was won by the German national. Several Lufthansa aircraft, including a Boeing 747-8i (D-ABYO), have been customized to "Fanhansa". The welcome panels near the first two doors, on the left, are signed by the footballers, and the seat headrests are embroidered with their names and will remain so throughout the competition. Future passengers will be able to fly to places marked with Neuer, Hummels, Kroos, Muller etc.
