While waiting in the F terminal for my flight back to JFK from Atlanta, I saw a Korean Air 747-8 taxiing. Turns out it was getting ready for a flight because it pulled into a gate. I rarely see a 747 pulling into a gate so this was a great way to end a trip.

Korean Air has some bitches and motherfuckers working the check-in desks.
They must treat them like shit over there because one son of a bitch kept complaining to me about another passenger who checked in ahead of me for no real fucking reason. Sonovabich made me late getting to the gate.
But before that that motherfucker charged 100 dollars for one of my bags going over the weight limit by a few pounds.
Some skinny ass, glasses wearing, Korean Airline check-in desk motherfucker.
More recently this bitch looking bitch working the business check-in mouthed off saying I have to go to Economy check-in. My family was flying business and I moved the bags over there. But then how hard is it to FUCKING print the boarding pass from there?
Business on motherfucking Korean Air costs 10 grand or something. So 2 of my family paid 20'000 to fly business.
Shut da fuck up and give me the economy boarding pass! WTF...
Korean Air is like "We always put our customers first... comfort of customers is our priority."
Shut the fuck up Korean Air. At least train your people right. BIG FUCK YOU!

quite the machine. always dreamed of flying on one. i recently flew on my first 777, was quite impressed with riding on that large of a plane (i’ve always flown 737’s). couldn’t imagine a 747 or a 380.

Don’t get close to them, they are known to be aggressive. Took the tail off a fellow jet just the other day.

I was staying in the Atlanta Peachtree Hotel (the John Portman-designed one) downtown a few years ago and in came a Korean Air captain, first officer, second officer (flight engineer?), and cadet (one-stirpe). I wonder if they were not from this aircraft (or another 747)?

Atlanta? This guy comes in about 3 times a week. The only commercial 747 that flies here now

After getting used to seeing 747s lined up side by side at any major international hub airport, it feels really weird that these are rare now.

The Queen looks so modern and new despite being a base design that’s older than my parents.
Long live the Queen.

Nice! You might catch another one at JFK! Korean Air and Air China both fly the 747-8 daily to JFK and Lufthansa flies a 747-400 daily
