this monday LH526 was the first commercial flight for an Airbus A340-600 with Lufthansa. LH526 is FRA-EZE-SCL.

I think it is in service. I quick search of Airliners.net yielded these results:

Here it is at Santiago, Chile.

Here at Buenos Aires, Argentina:

The photographe4r says of this pic:LH`s A346 Maiden Flight to BUE arrives at 07.43 am (local time) flaring over the touchdown zone

My answer would be South America.

it such a beautiful aircraft...but she needs so much fuel...i'd prefer the 777-300

i saw this one doing a fly by at the Paris Airshow at 120kts...with an angle of attack of 40°...that was cool! 8)

MrBones you said
"it such a beautiful aircraft...but she needs so much fuel...i'd prefer the 777-300"

this is not true, for the leg EZE-FRA with full pax and aprox. 12tns payload, just only 132tns fuel.... the 744 needed aprox 158tns... hudge difference.
