  • The amazing Boeing 747-400 is my absolute favorite aircraft but it is slowly disappearing from the skies. This video is my tribute to this awesome airliner. The video is somewhat long and contains lots of O'Hare airliner action filmed from the international terminal. The actual flight begins around 14:00 if you wish to see only the flight.
    Recorded: October 2017
    Origin: Chicago, IL, USA
    Destination: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
    Flight: KL612
    Aircraft Reg # PH-BFU "City of Beijing"
    Seat: 16A Economy Comfort
    Flight Duration: 06:45:00
    Camera: Sony RX-100M5 and iPhone 7

    Thanks for sharing. I really hate to see the 747 phased out..this plane is indeed the king of the skies.

      Sadly KLM will say goodbye to the 747 in 2021 :(

      Yeah but the cabin is totally outdated. Screens are garbage and there is no power outlet for your personal device. Just flew with the 747 and hope for a A350 or Dreamliner for the next flight.

      harv screens are actually not that bad. And “outdated” well, it’s actually nice to be a 1990s cabin because that was back when flying had way more unconditional love and happiness compared to today

      mmafan3 KLM will definitely lose its identity when the KLM Queen of the Skies leaves the only dear home she’s ever known, Amsterdam Schiphol for one last time in 2021

    Awesome report! Really enjoyed it :) you shot some awesome ramp footage at ORD. Such a nice variety of liveries, airlines and aircraft types. Then the queen of the skies, it is getting more special by the day as the 747 becomes more “extinct”. I am glad i logged one last year and am still hoping to catch a couple more before they leave KLM’s fleet. Looks like you had a great flight with KLM! :)
    Thanks for sharing!

    Seeing that Etihad 777-300ER really put a smile on my face. It was the same 777 I flew (A6-ETP) to Abu Dhabi from ORD in 2015 from Gate M4. Really threw me back and on top of that, great video.

    gosto desse tipo de vídeo. Mostrando chegada ao aeroporto, embarque e consequentemente alguns pontos interno do vôo e lógico filmando a paisagem visão externa que na verdade é muito bonito e bacana. Espetacular.

    Too bad it was dark still on landing, but even worse was they left the cabin lights on 😭
    Still a wonderful video. My brother flew to AMS from ATL yesterday. So good timing on the video for me.

    I just recently flew Lufthansa 747-8 and what a beautiful plane and their service was very good. British Airways will start sending it's A380 to Chicago starting May 8th of 2018 I can't wait. By the way when was this filmed?

  • @Petriku1

    Hello there! I’m flying the same plane on two day’s for the 4th time but was wondering if there was free or any WiFi at all. Hope I get an answer ASAP! Thank you!

  • @TerrelLism
    @TerrelLism Před 6 lety

    I've worked at ORD for so long and never asked, at 13:13, KLM has the side of the plane open and I've never seen anyone else with a 747 do that. What's it for?

    • @strunkinc
      @strunkinc Před 6 lety

      That 747 is known as the combo, It is half passenger and and half cargo. So the door is the cargo door open and being loaded and unloaded. I believe KLM is the last orator of the "combo" 747!

    • @crazyrmj2580
      @crazyrmj2580 Před 5 lety

      I do the flight KLM it has half cargo and half passenger there’s two sides one for regular cargo and bag cans and the other side is called “Main deck” which usually contains bigger cargo pallets cars or ext it’s really fun doing KLM tbh
