The Queen continues to fly west: Delta’s final regularly scheduled 747 service ends this week
Tuesday, Delta Airlines is saying goodbye to the Queen of the Skies as the 747-400 returns from Seoul Incheon to Detroit. It will be the final passenger flight on a regularly scheduled route that Delta will ever operate with a 747. Once Delta’s farewell flights are complete later this month, the 747 passenger planes with a widget on the tail will completely disappear from the skies. Delta is the only remaining major domestic airline flying the passenger version of the iconic 747. United Airlines retired their fleet in November. The 747s will be brought to the airline boneyard in Arizona in January. Delta’s new flagship passenger plane is the Airbus A350. <br/>
