[@borisglevrk]

actually, in Japan they had less than 1 hour 747 flights... Frankfurt to Hamburg is 411km Tokyo Haneda to Osaka Itami is 405km. The Japanese even have a specific "short range version" of 747s, starting from the early generation 747SR (Short rang) and then the 747-400D (Domestic)

[@rayneutronkuk]

yea JAL123 was operating this flight

[@StratocastRS]

I believe the 74SP was developed specifically for the japan routes.

[@ant647448336]

They did, the ANA 747D which had a serious amount of seats. I was there for the retirement flight back in March 2014.

[@cha_d844]

@@StratocastRS you might be thinking about the 747SR 😅. If i’m not mistaken the 747SP was developed for Pan Am.

[@adillakandi.r]

​@@StratocastRS 747SP are longer range version of 747, i think what you meant is 747SR

[@aviation.001]

Short flights are also used for line training where you have to complete legs and by that train your crew at takeoffs and landings faster as you would normally on long flights. The few A380 Lufthansa is bringing back will probably fly those short flights too as well as British Airways did with their A380s.

[@geckogames2106]

Glad that his vlogs seem to getting better as he seems to be getting more comfortable with filming in real life

[@sinisterarti]

Hey Swiss, I've really been enjoying your vlogs. They are different from other Videos you make, and I really enjoy watching these. Personally, i think they are more interesting. Keep up the good work:)

[@wallaby747]

These vlog type videos are so entertaining, I love watching Swiss take a break from his usual videos. It would be great if he did more of these, even though they can be expensive.

[@devn3813]

I have flown on the upper and lower deck when KLM flew the 747-400 and I actually preferred the lower deck. On the left hand side there is the one seat totally by itself and it doesn’t even feel like you’re on an airplane in the nose it feels like a house

[@SYDAirlineEnthusiast]

Upper deck only once I flew, and it was nice.

[@ufuk0890]

Hello im the guy in the 6.26 minute! Thanks for the photo and share this beatiful experience! Hello from Italy!

[@lmjacob115]

I love your irl vlogs. They are definitely way more interesting than the flight simulator vids.

[@rishitkumar7076]

Everybody-Lufthansa Meanwhile Swiss - Lufthansa

[@Comrade_Alex_228]

Ummm… where is differences?

[@nurrizadjatmiko21]

Very excellent and awesome video indeed👍❤. Playing a flight simulator in a jumbo jet is quite funny, avgeek part is also my favorite and i think one of them recognized you as the Legend of Butter Landings lol or maybe they are the big fans of Swiss001, and even the cockpit visit part is also my favorite as well. FYI, Lufthansa at the moment has 8 Boeing 747-400 and actually by the end of 2025, Lufthansa will be saying goodbye to all of it's classic Queen Of The Skies and replacing it with Boeing 777X which is still yet to be certified. Boeing 747-8 ? They will continue to fly with Lufthansa for a few more years. Sadly, i never flown onboard a Boeing 747 in my life but hopefully i will in the future.

[@PilotKatya]

Great video- as a British person, that accent was a solid 10/10 :)

3:15 yeah it came from my home airport VOBL / Bengaluru international airport

[@janvirstown]

Haha, have to leave room for the thrust master! And have to use it in the air! That was an epic part.

[@laurinharms]

Actually the Lufthansa product, especially first and business is pretty outdated and not that good at the moment, but luckily they are to refresh the whole cabin in all their new 350s and 787s and they also refresh the 747-8 with their new product, which is actually very good in my opinion

[@xamegames]

Air China flys the 747-400 on the route from Guangzhou (CAN) to Beijing (PKX) everyday as well. It's about a 2 and a half hour flight. Pretty nice to see these airlines fly these old queens!

[@rexowastaken]

I love your vlogs like these! It's also amazing that you came again to my local airport, Palma de Mallorca. I wish I could've seen you in real life!

[@dacallp]

[@Archaeus777]

One of the best Swiss001 videos ever

[@patricklennon8351]

Tolles Video, dieser Flug gibt mir jetzt einen Vorwand, um einige 747 Flüge zu bekommen😂😂

[@noahglavan]

I've never seen some airline doesn't have the IFE INOP. When I was 4 years old, I used to ride China Airlines 747 fron Taipei to San Francisco in business class. And the entertainment system really wokrs never have problems with the airline.

[@Devolante]

The fact they haven’t retrofitted the plane with new seats and tech suggests they might be retiring it in the potential near future

[@Aviationgeek43]

I love your vids Swiss keep up the good work👍

[@abcjelly]

i’ve seen british airways flying between london & madrid with their A350 & i remember seeing irl an iberia A330 approaching london (LHR) from spain (gotta b from spain)

[@AviatorRixi]

you should do more of this! The way u do it is interesting!

[@tspryaviation]

You should visit San Diego sometime... I'd LOVE to meet ya.

[@CKLee-rs4kl]

Your comments were really fun. But, if you think Lufthansa biz class is bad; try British Air Seattle-Heathrow in biz class -- seats are like sitting/sleeping on a park bench -- whether on upper or main deck. But still love the airplane; wish it was as well pressurized as the 777-300 which is much more comfortable for a long-haul flight.

[@Fizzyguys.]

We all know that he is flying back with Ryanair😂

[@bwc1976]

So awesome! The only thing better would be having a classic 747 with the spiral staircase as featured in so many movies when I was a kid.

[@Adrian_152]

Love this, please do more IRL videos

[@ariyawatnateampon2382]

Thaiairways used to fly B747 in Bangkok-Chiang mai and Bangkok-Phuket flight.

[@ametistgaming]

Bro I love how they ( Lufthansa ) literally flies an a330 further than the 747 and a340 while the a340 and 747 usually fly further lol

[@SYDAirlineEnthusiast]

You can say the same for British airways. Their e jets do two hour flights between London City and Italy or Spain, while they once operated A380s between London and Paris, and that flight would be less than forty minutes in duration.

I think that if you keep doing vlogs it will become easier to afford them. People enjoy them a lot so you should be able to get more views and such. Of course you can still post msfs and xplane, just you may be more successful with the vlogs!!:)

Hey I flew the same fog jet but the opposite way on the same date as you ! I spotted your arrival at the gate too onboard the 747 !

[@cerpopcorn8670]

Same wits Swiss airlines. Sometimes they fly their A330, A340 or their 777 to Pula airport (495km), but Croatian airlines do the same route with the Q400. A difference is that Swiss airlines do training touch and go's at Pula airport .

[@nexforreal]

Most of Pan Am's 747 fleet would be doing the exact same as what this flight did if they were still in service right now.

[@SYDAirlineEnthusiast]

British airways used to operate the A380s between London and Paris, but yes this is weird. Shortest 747 flight I had been on was three hours on Singapore airlines from Hong Kong to Singapore.

[@qisenwang370]

Welp, being from Canada, Air Canada operates Boeing 777-300ER and Airbus A330-343 for CYYZ-CYUL. But this route has high demand so I understand why. Like the Lufthansa case also.

[@SYDAirlineEnthusiast]

United airlines used to operate the 747 between San Francisco and Chicago. It is a three hour flight eastbound. Hawaiian airlines has occasionally operated the A330s on its inter-island flights.

Fanny story. I was flying from New Plymouth to Auckland at 11:50 it got delayed to 1:20 and it was canceled to weather conditions. I then decided to get on the next flight to Auckland. They found a flight at 5:40 so I waited at the airport. 2 hours until the 5:40 flight was about to take place.. oh but it doesn’t end there it also got canceled due to wind so now I have to wait an xtra day to fly home.

[@stevenchristmas4863]

I flew back on a 747-400 from New York in February in Business I was booked on the upper deck and they decided at the gate to close the whole upper deck and relocate all the passengers to the lower deck. so I ended up in 10C and an aisle seat not the window seat I booked. Lucky for me I explained to the man in seat 10A and I switched seat to the window. Lufthansa customer service is extremely poor even for business class. They can buy all the new latest planes they want but if the customer service sucks people will not fly with them. Strange thing is Ryanair has better customer services! If Lufthansa did not have the Queen of the Skies and other rare classics I would not be flying with them.
