Boeing launched the 747-8 program, including
the 747-8 Intercontinental passenger airplane
and the 747-8 Freighter, in late 2005. The
Freighter will enter service in late 2009, followed
by the Intercontinental in 2010. The 747-8 will
be the only airplane in the 400- to 500-seat mar-
ket, seating 467 passengers in a typical three-
class configuration (51 more than the 747-400).
The Freighter will carry 16 percent more revenue
cargo volume than the 747-400 Freighter, and
will be the industry’s only nose-cargo-loading jet.
