It’s the end of an era for the Boeing 747. With its iconic hump, United’s last “queen of the skies” will be retired today at San Francisco International Airport.
“It’s a special place in my heart and I wasn’t born in the 70s, I want to see what it was like to fly back in the 70s,” said Vincent Forni, San Francisco.
The 747 debuted in 1968, it changed air travel, it could handle long trips and could hold more people. But today’s planes are more efficient so the 747 has to go. This plane will likely be parked in an airline graveyard near the Mojave Desert.
Aviation lovers will pack the sold out flight.
