Ive flown on 4 747-400 flights with United. Over to Asia and back. Back when it was the dark blue and dark grey livery. What an amazing plane. They were the best trips I've ever taken on an airliner.

When I returned from Italy on January 14, 1970...having flown on Pan American...as we exited customs to the main floor at Kennedy Airport...there was a huge photo of Pan Americans 747 for passengers to see....it went into service one week later on the 21st of January......little did we know the fantastic journey that was just beginning

I worked the 747SP - 747100 - 747200 & THE 747400 during my career as a flight attendant with United. I worked the CRAF flights (bringing military) during Desert Shield, Desert Storm & Iraq. Many memories of the gallant lady know as the "747".

Did United consider the 747-800,with its technical advances instead of just chucking the entire Queen of the Skies out the back door? Seems money is their only consideration...Delta also.

The United Queen of the Skies was definitely getting very dated toward her end, but she was certainly a gorgeous plane, and I'm grateful to have flown her over the skies of my foreign hometowns, Seoul and London. It also made it fitting that the last international United 747 flew to/from Seoul - I so wished to be on that final flight myself.

I have been blessed with a truly wonderful life spending just over 40 years flying all sorts of Boeing aircraft for South African Airways and also in Singapore. The 747 is not just a plane. it has a soul which talks to you through the seat of your pants and in your fingertips. As gentle as any aircraft can be , there is no equal. Such a sad day when the last 747-400 takes its load of passengers on its last ever commercial flight I retired 12 years ago after a fantastic career. God bless the 747 Queen of the skies .

893/892 SFO-ICN ICN-SFO was indeed the last international flight of the 747-400. Since she as the backbone of Pan-Am's and United's transpacific networks for decades, I would say that was really the lats flight in some respects.

the only 747 that we have in morocco is now retired this last month the famous CN-RGA 747-400 bought in 1994 and now grounded it is unbeliavable that the modern 747-400 will be retired and scrapped just sad now only KLM luthansa and british airways still operates the 747-400 but for no longer time 747 is fuel efficient but it is the next actual victim of the oil mafia rising price

Interesting fact: In January of 1988, a United 747SP-21 N147UA flew around the world and back SEA-ATH-TPE-SEA in 36 hours and 54 minutes at 624mph and a distance of 23,125 miles, breaking the previous record of 45 hours that was set by a Gulfstream III. This flight, flown by the great Clay Lacy, was named "Friendship One" and raised $500,000 for charities.

Great video. SNA has the shortest runway of any major airport in the USA. This results in pilots hitting the brakes pretty hard to ensure that they can stop. In your case though, the pilot got the plane down right on the 1000ft marker, and still stopped in time to pull off the runway with an additional 1000 feet remaining. I have been in there a few times when a fast approach lead to the pilot forcing the plane down...pretty rough! Never a dull takeoff/landing at SNA!
