Which routes "across EU" use 747s?
- youngtaff 6y agoPre-covid, some of the BA flights from London to Madrid were using heavy jets due to freight loads
- tluyben2 6y agoI had one even from London to NL because that one was flying on to Indonesia I think and picked up people in Amsterdam.
- _-___________-_ 6y agoThere used to be a widebody on Madrid to Frankfurt(?) on a South American airline too. Such routes are relatively rare in Europe but do happen. It would be quite a long time since there were any 747s flying Amsterdam to Jakarta though, I think? Before they retired them I think KLM's last 747s were operating on transatlantic routes only. Edit: realised it was probably Garuda, but if it was recent it's still not a 747 - they don't have any anymore - it would be a 777.
- _-___________-_ 6y agoYes, but they were 777s, not 747s. Iberia also regularly used widebodies between Madrid and London (A330 and A350) before the pandemic, and has actually recently resumed them - one return trip per day I believe.
