Love this, beautiful video and aircraft! I had booked a 747-8 flight to Washington back in 2013 (LH418) and it got switched to a -400 at the very last minute. Needless to say it ruined my day. Thanks for sharing :)

[@airlinetraveller]

Thank you very much! It makes me very happy that you enjoy the video. =D Sad to hear you missed the 747-8 back then. It always sucks for us avgeeks when that happens =/

[@GrumpyTinashe]

Awesome. I have flown a380, 777 and a330 to jnb but never a 747 and this is my next goal. Thanks

[@airlinetraveller]

Thank you! I'm glad my video might inspire a trip with the 747 =D

This is fantastic it feels like I was a passenger on the flight sitting by the window. Well done to the traveller like I said the 747 the queen of the skies is my no.1 aircraft for long haul flights apart from the MCDONNELL DOUGLAS DC10'S B.777'S

[@airlinetraveller]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! It makes me happy to hear you felt like you were on the flight by watching. The 747 really is the Queen of the skies! =D

I don't iff Lufthansa have ptvs on all long haul fleet. Iff no I would not fly with them. I saw the a 380 in this video and Air France will remove the a 380 from JNB this spring.

[@airlinetraveller]

Lufthansa have ptvs on all their long-haul planes. =)

Good choice to begin the new year with a B747-8 experience!

[@airlinetraveller]

It sure was. My first time with the 747-8 =)

[@autoeuropean]

Have done the Frankfurt to Jhb many times but always A380....they must have changed to 747 relatively recently?

[@paulf4886]

autodreams They changed it about 1,5 years ago

Paul F ok cheers

[@leosjogren5244]

What seat is that one? i am going to fly on one soon, and i am researching the beast window seat possible. Thank you :)

[@airlinetraveller]

It's a few rows infront of the 4th exit. 31-33 somewhere, I don't remember exactly.

[@leosjogren5244]

@@airlinetraveller thanks, mate!

[@zerberus500]

What was your seat number?

[@airlinetraveller]

32A I think

[@jonasfruhling5266]

Boeing 747? I saw last week that the A380 fly to Johannesburg

[@airlinetraveller]

Maybe they just changed it. It's been flown by the 748 for a long time =)

Indeed =)

[@robbe82rtw]

747-800 is not so confortable as A380 I have travelled many times with both of them with a lufthansas' ones. in this aircraf I suggest to reserve window seats in the last 3 rows. Avoid them in the rest of aircraft

[@airlinetraveller]

I have never flown the A380, so thank you for the comparison. I chose one of the last 3 rows on my return flight. It was better, but still tight. =/
