Two A340-300s, Lufthansa from Philly to Frankfurt and back. I believe it was the same one a week apart, D-AIGF.

One and only one thus far; however, I get to be the first to post Edelweiss Air:

Just two. Both from Philippine Airlines on their Airbus A340-300 but I am happy to say I flew on both LAX-MNL instead of the 30 or so minute later T7 flight and the now stuck in purgatory for being relaunched, CEB-LAX direct flight.

Sadly have not had the chance to fly one.

Was meant to fly on one of the Edelweiss A340-300's CUN-ZRH back in 2017, but a broken wrist meant having to fly back to MEL via IAH. :cry:

AF A343 CDG -CAN and CAN-CDG - this was before I started taking an interest in registrations of aircraft flown on.
EY A346 AUH-MAN A6-EHI (shockingly upgraded to business class despite not having flown with EY for a few years)
QR A346 DOH-BKK and BKK-DOH x2 (A7-AGA, A7-AGB and 2x A7-AGD)

Got to admit the A346 is my favourite airplane I've flown on, followed by the A359.

I just love 340-series, but I only got 343s
Lufthansa (D-AIGO, D-AIGT)
Emirates!!! (A6-ERM). I was ready to kiss the bus driver in Dubai when we reached the remote stand. I was so afraid it would be replaced by another 77W
TAP (CS-TOA). Had to run through entire Lisbon airport. That beauty was connected at the most distant gate from where my connecting plane was attached. When I reached CS-TOA, there still were 5 passengers to board. Behind my back, they closed the door. If I had failed, would have flown another 332. Was worth the effort...
LAN (CC-CQF) MAD-SCL. The longest (by time) flight in my life. amazing experience...
OMG how I love 343s
