THE CHINESE First Class · AIR CHINA 747-400 FIRST CLASS · Beijing to Guangzhou

WELCOME to a Wandering Scholar production; To all my subscribers, it is my pleasure to see you back !

It can be argued that an airplane is not “Air Force One” unless the president is onboard. However, Air China’s 747-400 fleet is an outstanding case since it functions much more than just being an “Air Force One”.

Eversince joining Air China’s fleet in the early 90s, 747-400s have been instrumental in Air China’s long haul expansion and China’s diplomacy. Having flown on the first non-stop flight between the United States and China, the first polar crossing performed by Chinese carrier, the Queen’s legacy at Air China also extends to transporting prominent personals such as President Xi of China to most recently North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

The 747-400 I had flown is registered as B-2447, currently designated to Chinese Premier Li-Keqiang. The 25 years old Queen carries a total of 344 seats with 10 first class located between door 1 and 2, one of which is my seat for the 3 hours flight from Beijing to Guangzhou.

It is an honour to witness and share the history with you all onboard Air China’s 747-400 and please leave your comments and likes should you enjoy hospitality from an aviation perspective.
