Lufthansa‘s Boeing 747-400s – a reliable lot
Over thirty years ago the Boeing 747 was dubbed the “jumbo jet” due to its enormous proportions: double decks, a wingspan of over 64 meters and a length of nearly 71. Very soon, it proved to be an extremely reliable aircraft. Lufthansa operates its B747-400s, each seating 371 passengers, on intercontinental flights.
