   CB> i dont know about BA - i would assume they're on other ER/LR aircraft,   
   CB> but there's a number of other "majors" that still fly the 74's with PAX   
   CB> on them including lufthansa. while i agree that newer or more modern   
   CB> aircraft are more efficient etc, i am certainly not looking forward to   
   CB> the day where i dont see any more 74's outside of the few cargo ones that   
   CB> come into orlando etc.   
       
   Air China, Korean, Rossiya and Lufthansa as the only "majors" with Rossiya   
   being grounded due to sanctions after the invasion of Ukraine.   
       
   Air China . 3 747-4   7 747-8   
   Korean      4 747-4   9 747-8   
   Lufthanse   8 747-4  19 747-8   
   Rossiya     9 747-4 (grounded)   
       
   There are some charter operations such as Atlas and others but they are not   
   'majors'. Also an accumulated high number of government planes.   
       
   54% of all remaining scheduled 747 pax operation are by Lufthansa.
