I love theses 747's. It is really too bad. I'm flying on their A340's from Perth to Johannesburg. I still find it hard to belive they traded those beautiful birds for A340's --not that I don't like A340's but the 747 is just better.
Sorry to see SAA give up its 747s. This video probably one of the last times SAA flew the plane on commercial routes. Now solely flying Airbus 340 on long haul routes.
brilliant vid!! What was this plane doing in Lisbon? Pity SAA no longer operates the 747-400 as of a few days ago:( I think it looks beautiful in this livery.
@thefluffyelephant Some of our 747-400's are back in service currently, and are flying to various destinations. I am so glad as a Boeing fan, I refused to travel on the A340's...
can anyone tell me what saa gain from dropping their 747400. i was even upset when their 747300 were scratched

Missed The Great North. Have 'only' been on Durban, Ibhayi three times and Vulindlela (SAV, SAK and SAY).

What happened to its 747s? Also I think they passed these aircraft out too early, they were fine

Angola isn't the best country in terms of safety/modernization I assume?

A truly wonderful video. I actually flew on this very same plane from South Africa to Heathrow. I love flying on 747s.
