The Boeing 747 is a large, long-range wide-body airliner designed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes in the United States. After introducing the 707 in October 1958, Pan Am wanted a jet 2 1⁄2 times its size. With a ten-abreast economy seating, it typically accommodates 366 passengers in three travel classes.
