The Boeing 747-8, the world's largest private jet, redefines luxury in private aviation. Originally a passenger variant of the iconic 747-8 Intercontinental, this wide body airliner made its debut in 2005.
In a standard three-class setup, it accommodates 467 passengers, with an impressive range of 8,000 nautical miles at Mach 0.855. Compared to its predecessor, the 747-400, it carries 51 more passengers and 26% additional cargo. With a massive fuselage over 250 feet long and a wingspan of 224 feet, it dominates the sky.
Transformed into a private jet, it embodies luxury. Owned by a Middle Eastern magnate with exquisite taste, its ultra-luxurious interior, designed by Cabinet Alberto Pinto over four years, is one of just a few globally and the world's largest private jet.
The cabin feels like a grand mansion with lavish living spaces, dining areas, bedrooms, and an opulent master suite. Renowned designer Yves Pickardt's "soft modern style" emphasizes simplicity over extravagance.
The master bedroom, beneath the cockpit, offers privacy and tranquility, boasting a full-size bed, personal reading lamps, and adjustable lighting.
Luxury extends to the bathrooms, with the master bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and vanity. Even smaller bedrooms have well-appointed bathrooms.
Entertainment and comfort abound, from a spacious living room to crew quarters. The Boeing 747-8 redefines private aviation, setting new standards for luxury in the skies.
