I agree, Albert. A 744 mockup would have been a better comparison, but I don’t have one. To be clear though – that picture is not of a 744. That was taken long ago in a first generation 747. The 744 is at least better than that.

But, you can compare the windows and overhead bins to see what the real benefits will be. The lighting is cool too.

A better comparison would be a picture of a Boeing 744 mockup instead of an actual 744 with an airline’s configuration and decor.

That said, I love the upper deck on the 744. :)

If this plane is half as cool as the pictures, it's going to be some plane.

I felt like I was looking at a spaceship and not renderings from a plane.

Cool.

Yeah, that curved staircase is pretty boss. I absolutely LOVE buisiness class on a 747-400. It feels more like a nice roomy living room rather than an airplane.
