The Longer-Range 747-400 airplanes (also known as 747-400ERs), launched in late 2000, are the latest demonstration of Boeing's commitment to continually improving the 747 to meet evolving market demands. These airplanes are a tangible demonstration of Boeing's commitment to the future of the 747.

Boeing continues to study the market for improved passenger and freighter versions of the 747-400 - airplanes that would offer greater payload, more range and revenue-enhancing features, options and capabilities. And, airplanes that are even more environmentally friendly.

When the market demands a 747 with additional capabilities, Boeing will be ready to build it.
