Historical description and use

The Boeing 747-400, introduced into service in 1989, is one of the most popular and important wide-body aircraft in the history of civil aviation, not without reason nicknamed the “Jumbo Jet”. The Lufthansa airline uses this type for long-haul flights, mostly on intercontinental routes. These aircraft operated routes Europe–North America, Europe–Asia, and others from the late 1980s until the present day. The Boeing 747-400 has gained recognition for its reliability, excellent passenger capacity (about 400–500 seats), and a range of up to 13,500 km.
