The ambience music just takes us to some sort of VIP lounge, amazing. I still have a Japan Airlines magazine with a complete report about Kansai, detailing its project and construction.

I would connect in Kansai many times in the late 90s going to manila from either DTW or MSP, what a beautiful airport. I use to work for Northwest, so I would use either Tokyo, Kansai, or Nagoya were Northwest use to have flight connects here with their 747's both 200 and 400 series. I doubt delta flies this route anymore

[@jxtrosh6081]

to answer everyone questions the 727 most likely came from California and stopped in Hawaii then went on to japan

[@arandom7376]

No, probably Guam.

[@scottsheehan1596]

funny seeing a Continental 727 there

[@Interdictiondeltawing]

They made Osaka Kansai Airport out as an airport island

[@yosoylaluzylaverdad]

Very interesting video !! A Continental 727 ?? What route ? Thanks

[@jrwokoun6889]

It was a Continental Micronesia 727 & they had a hub on Guam. I think it was Air Micronesia until Continental threw $$ into it & added their name. Then Continental dropped Micronesia after the last owner(s) either died or sold their shares eventually becoming United.

@@jrwokoun6889 Thank you very much

[@MultiSUPERLATIVO]

Also interesting when Pan Am, Continental and other US carriers had some hub airports in Europe, flying domestic in Europe by using a lot of 727s. Many passengers flying New York Berlin with a 747 usually had a stopover at London Heathrow and then a 727 aircraft flew them onwards (London to Berlin).

[@yosoylaluzylaverdad]

@@MultiSUPERLATIVO Yes. I remember also the Delta´s hub in Frankfurt, with several 727. Regards

[@MultiSUPERLATIVO]

@@yosoylaluzylaverdad Exactly !!!! Those were the days chap.

[@mariaestherreyescano5563]

They have to bring back ANA 747 200 i flew on it in 1992

[@uuteen]

I am japan so that’s B747-200 On the gate

[@diandrade29]

I'd rather listeninig only the sound of the planes, instead of music

[@mariaestherreyescano5563]

Also the 400

[@หนุ่มอีสานใต้-ผ8ป]

What the hell aer you playing?

[@skipcampbell4226]

Air Mic 727 (Continental)bounced all over the South Pacific. Osaka was the end of the line to the west. Hawaii was the end of the line to the east. The good old days! Everything sucks now. Namely our current government!

[@mariaestherreyescano5563]

United 727 cant fly there

[@youmustkill9755]

Not directly though It must had a miltiple stopovers for refueling Their midpoint before reaching in there must have been in HNL or Guam

[@NickChigozie]

They were based in guam

[@mariaestherreyescano5563]

But the
