Lufthansa Says "NO" to Retire The 747! Here's Why
Dubbed the "Queen of the Skies", the 7 4 7 was the world's first twin-aisle jet airliner. Designed and built by Boeing in 28 months and introduced by Pan Am in 19 70. It was the plane that redefined travel in the sky and the aviation industry. After five decades, at a rate of just half a plane per month, Boeing confirmed it has ended 7 4 7 productions with the final delivery in January 20 23. Many airlines simultaneously grounded this plane. But that is not Lufthansa's story. The airline said there are no plans to retire the aircraft yet.
So why won't Lufthansa retire this plane? How do they plan to operate the 7 4 7? Let's dive in!
Lufthansa Says "NO" to Retire The 747! Here's Why
As the 19 60’s came to a close, the Boeing 7 4 7 extended the golden age of air travel. With capacity increased by a staggering two and a half times that of the 7 O 7, and costs reduced. The 7 4 7 has reached many customers who can experience air travel. Spacious interiors with luxurious amenities and enhanced in-flight dining and entertainment experiences, available to both first and economy class passengers. This is a huge advantage for airlines to make a lot of money from the plane. There is no denying that the jumbo jet has occupied a permanent place in the hearts of aviation enthusiasts. And decades gone by, it remains a symbol that represents the charm of air travel in a bygone era.
Lufthansa Says "NO" to Retire The 747! Here's Why
However, one thing must be faced: the era of jumbo jets is over. They have been made obsolete by smaller and more agile aircraft. For aviation operations, small twin-engine planes are much easier to carry passengers. They consume much less fuel because they have two combustion engines instead of four. Twin-engine aircraft such as the Boeing Triple 7 and Airbus A3 50 have become popular choices for long-haul flights because they have performance comparable to four-engine aircraft while being more fuel efficient. That's the advantage of small twin-engine planes because they offer airlines lower costs, lower noise, lower carbon emissions, and more flexible deployment. Airlines also no longer have to worry about filling a large passenger plane with more than 400 passengers on long-distance flights.

I just flew the queen the dash eight on Lufthansa over a week ago from Frankfurt to Singapore in business class upper deck and it was in my bucket list for a long time ...part of my 66th b day gift to myself. Now I can say I flew for decades on all models of the 747s including the SP! ❤ Just love this plane even more so than the king the a380!
I agree it don't get no better than the 747
thank for your feedback
Seriously: what the heck is the problem? There are enough damn' wealthy passengers who enjoy and prefer to travel with the B 747....
Lufthansa 747 still standing 🫡 queen of sky✈️👑
Lufthansa 747 is iconic✈️✈️✈️
Boeing should continue building the B 747! So sad that the queen of the skies will become history, soon!
yep it's an iconic 👑 👑👑💎
Same Reason Why Emirates Won't Retire A380. Other A380 operators are retiring the A380 but that's not Emirates story! A350 is my Most Favourite plane for this Airline!
thanks for sharing your thoughts
sorry to give this news to you but… emirates are planning on replacing most of their aging a380s and 777s with the 777x
