Boeing's "new" 747

United Airlines has unveiled a Boeing 747-400 in its new rebranding following the merger with Continental Airlines.  This is the second ‘new’ 747 in just over a week, Boeing themselves rolling out the lead 747-8i eight days ago.

With the 374-seat Boeing now repainted in the new livery the carrier has at least one of each of its mainline fleet types carrying the United wording and the Continental tailfin.  The airline has completed the respraying of 309 mainline and regional aircraft, which is more than 20% of its total fleet.  The ongoing visual restyling of the company will accelerate in the months ahead, and customers will begin to see new airport facilities and advertising. www.united.com
