* Only Ships 6636, 6637, and 6638 operate SEA-HKG due to length of operation, until more B747-400s come on line. ** Can operate JFK-NRT when a B747-400 is unavailable, and payload permits, enroute winds/weather permitting. This is due to the -7R4G2 engines. Ships 6601, 6603, and 6608 operate in a 454 seat high-density arrangement for flights to/from NRT-GUM, and NRT-HNL. This is due to the heavy loads of Japanese nationals that fly those routes.
