Dine Under The Belly Of A Boeing 747

UA 747

You can now bid on the chance for a chance to have dinner next to an ex-United 747-400.

Through an auction currently live on the MileagePlus Exclusives website, members can bid miles to travel to Tupelo, Mississippi for a private tour of Universal Asset Management (UAM) Aircraft Disassembly Center, an aviation asset management facility that is currently home to a number of retired United 747 aircraft. The tour will culminate with a champagne toast in the 747 first-class cabin of N118UA, followed by dinner under the belly of the aircraft, which operated the airline’s final 747 revenue flight last year.

The package includes:

Roundtrip United Economy® domestic airfare for two to Memphis, Tennessee
Two-night hotel accommodations at a Marriott hotel property in Memphis
- Check-in: Friday, June 1, 2018
- Check out: Sunday, June 3, 2018

CONCLUSION

If you missed the final 747 flight or a chance to see United’s 747s once more, now you have another chance. The chance to visit an aircraft disassembly center is also interesting. As an aside, Memphis is also a great city to visit.
