Boeing has just unveiled its new jumbo jet 747-8 Intercontinental.It is seen as competition for the Airbus A380 superjumbo.
The plane can seat 467 passengers - 51 more than the current 747 - while burning less fuel.Other features of the new plane include new wings, a new tail, a sharper nose, state-of-the-art engines and a new cockpit.
And while it carries fewer passengers than the Airbus A380, it will be the world's longest airliner.
Boeing has won 33 orders for the passenger version of the plane so far - from Lufthansa and Korean Air Lines.
It has also sold 74 of the cargo version of the plane.
Boeing said it is confident it would receive more orders once the passenger plane enters service later this year.
It also hopes that US president's fleet - Air Force One - will eventually be replaced with 747-8s.
The first Boeing 747 was launched 42 years ago, with more than 1,400 sold until the 747-400 was withdrawn from sale last year.
