When I was on the Boeing Factory tour in Everett, WA a few years ago, I saw the Cathay Pacific Logo going on a 747-8i and I was OVERLY excited, until I found out it was for a FREIGHTER not commercial aircraft!

I have a little of this 747 aviation tag,memory to keep.

The dislikes are from Airbus fanboys xD

beautiful plane

747 forever :')

the awesome generation of new aircraft . the 747-8F (this plane) the 787 dreamliner and the mighty airbus A380, bring on the future :D

this is the first replay for this video i wana to thank myself and wish a good and better life to see this aircraft, god bless me

I like the A380 but I could never forget the 747 :) Its just a amazing aircraft, its taken me all around the world my whole life! I would hate for the 747 to go away, I hope in the coming versions its still got the main design as the 747-400, and not just having 2 levels like the a380 :.)

I wish Cathay Pacific will buy any Boeing 747-8i for passengers in the nearly future. The pilots would have experience for the new 747-8i from the 747-8f and also from the older 747-400. I would be happy, if one of my favourite Airlines would buy one of my favourite Aircraft.

Wow what a beautiful aircraft. We are flying the triple 7 from LA to HK soon but wish it was a 47 and especially the 800. Maybe someday, we can keep our heads in the clouds and dream.

I like the music

why???? pls make a passenger boeing 747 plz!

Nice. We still have 747-8. Still can see Cathay 747 in the future.

I LOVE

omg 9 years ago

why dont you use aircraft like the 747-8i???? the airline would be very popular with that aircraft added to the fleet!

Cathay, please keep the 747 alive in passenger service.

Chúc mừng.

That is because Dubai is Emirates Airlines hub. All their flights go through their hub.

Why did u retire 747-400? I want it back :(

Great video and an incredibly beautiful bird

what music is this called cause it real good

you are delighted to be the first Asia Pacific airline to take delivery of the Boeing 747-8 Freighters. but all passengers are disappointed that u are not flying them with the 4 engines 747-8i. instead u picked the small twin engine 777x. flying with 2 engines always is not as safe as with 4 engines. the passenger demand is there and per passenger cost 747-8i always is lower than other boeing's plane. cx has made a very very very serious this time.

Hope Boeing makes new Boeing 747 Max so that Cathay might buy them and continue their journey with the Boeing 747s

i really hope cathay decide to get the 747-8 passenger version! i mean the a380 is good, but you know i think 747 suit them better :D

Cathay ordered A320 family neos

國泰是不會訂購747-8i客機的了。因為沒有777X好，2013年11月Emirates 一口氣訂了150架777X是世界有史以來最大一筆民航機訂單。150架777-9X總值近560億美元. 另外國泰90年代就參加了波音777的開發，給出用家的意見：波音董事會正式批准生產波音777系列全新機種，波音為了得到客戶的更多意見，展開了「Working Together」計劃，首次會議於1990年召開，參與者有聯合航空、西北航空、美國航空、國泰航空、日本航空與澳洲航空，協作波音確定新飛機性能。

now only the cargo will be able to enjoy the safety and comfort provided by this beautiful 747-8 freight. without a380 or 747-8i cx's image has reduced to a tiny airline flying tiny plannes. i dont love her as much as what i used to. so disappointed.

cathay pacific always is my favourite airline. whenever i am flying home i will pick cx. then i heard that cx has bought 747-8 freighter. then i thought cx will be flying her passengers in the 747-8i very soon. but i am so disappointed that they have chosen 777x instead. such a decision clearly showing that cx cares lot more the safety of the cargo then passenger and that's why they dont pick the 747-8i to fly her passenger. very very disappointed. all other airlines have this ugly piggy a380 to attract the passenger. but now cx has got nothing big and flying with 4 engines to impress and attract passengers. hard to understand why cx will have picked 777x this tiny plane with 2 engines. when comes to safety, flying with 4 engines and 18 wheels always is 10000000000000000000 time safer than flying with twin engine. how can such a tiny plane is able to make a good impression showing her passenger that cx indeed is a great airline. with all these tiny planes cathay pacific now is a tiny airline flying tiny planes. all my friends are saying the same thing regarding such a poor decision made by cx. all my friends are as disappointed as me. seems the great cathay pacific is half gone by now.

@scotplane they have i think its called the 747-8i and it has already been released

great flight s

I just checked on some flights from the Midwest to Munich Germany on Emirates. Just for fun I looked for 2 first class flights and they were $51,000 for 2 seats. And why do they fly to Dubai first. It's supposed to be non stop.. As a matter of fact it seems most flights go to Dubai first. What is going on ???

747

Why not 747-8i?

波音董事會正式批准生產波音777系列全新機種，波音為了得到客戶的更多意見，展開了「Working Together」計劃，首次會議於1990年召開，參與者有聯合航空、西北航空、美國航空、國泰航空、日本航空與澳洲航空，協作波音確定新飛機性能。起初Working Together團隊工作並不是很順利，工程師發現要整合多家公司意見並不是一件易事，國泰航空堅持機身橫切面必需等同於747的寬度，在三級艙佈置下能容納325名乘客；聯合航空認為新飛機應有「線傳飛控」技術。不過波音公司花了相當大的心力，合作結果令人滿意，總共有1,500項設計是由團隊作最後定案。省油的777-300ER計劃是由航空提出開發的，波音777-300ER曾在太平洋上進行ETOPS的飛行測試，最長的一次單發動機飛行達6小時29分鐘。

It's a B-LJE!

The freighter should have gone for d check by now

They have made alot of them, they are called 747-8i, only some companies have bought them like Lufthansa, nobody wants them for some reason?

should we tell them its not the biggest freighter?

This company will just tell lies. All to easy to make a big profit when you tell the customer one thing and then just goback on it some month later. They cost me 5 London Hong Kong returns. I even when to the head office and all the did was laugh.
