Boeing 747-8F in one paragraph. The 747-8F is Boeing's four-engine long-range freighter: about 132.6 t of payload, 34 main deck pallet positions and a nose door that swings up for outsize cargo. ICCJET arranges 747-8F cargo charter, ACMI wet lease and dry lease, and sources pre-owned 747-8Fs for sale.

    VQuestions

    747-8F cargo charter, lease and sale: questions.

    How much does it cost to charter a Boeing 747-8F?

    Each 747-8F cargo charter is quoted per flight. The price depends on the route, positioning and return legs, payload, airport and overflight fees, fuel and how soon you need it. Send ICCJET your origin, destination, dates and cargo details and we come back with a quote and available aircraft.

    What is the difference between cargo charter, ACMI and dry lease?

    A cargo charter buys one flight or a short series for your shipment. ACMI (wet lease) gives you aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance for a flying programme of weeks to years, flown under the operator's licence. A dry lease is the aircraft only, for airlines with their own crews and air operator certificate.

    How much cargo can a 747-8F carry?

    About 132.6 tonnes of payload in the ICCJET database, on 34 main deck pallet positions plus the lower holds. The nose door opens 3.56 m wide and 2.49 m high, so long and outsize pieces slide straight onto the main deck, which twin-engine freighters such as the 777F and A350F cannot do.

    How far can a 747-8F fly with cargo?

    Published range is about 4,265 nm in the ICCJET database. Real missions depend on payload, weather and routing; check a city pair in the ICCJET Route Planner.

    How much does a Boeing 747-8F cost to buy?

    Pre-owned 747-8Fs trade at roughly US $35M to $45M in the ICCJET database, depending on age, cycles, engine condition and lease status. Production ended in 2023, so every aircraft for sale today is pre-owned. We search listed and off-market aircraft.

    747-8F vs 777F: which freighter should I choose?

    The 747-8F carries about 29 t more (132.6 t against 103.7 t) and loads outsize freight through its nose door. The 777F flies farther (4,970 nm against 4,265 nm) on two engines. Race them in the Freighter duel above.

    Where does ICCJET arrange cargo charters?

    Worldwide, with clients across the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Tell us the route and the cargo and we source the right freighter, from a 737 to a 747-8F or An-124.

    Do you really sell robots and drones?

    Yes. ICCJET runs a robot catalogue with humanoids, airport and security robots, inspection drones and published price signals, and we match a robot to a ramp, hangar or warehouse task.

    Is the loading scene real footage?

    No. It is a 3D model built from Boeing airport planning drawings, the Oshkosh AeroTech Commander 30i specification and Unitree and DJI published figures. The robots and drone are shown larger than life next to a 76 m aircraft, and the intruder alert is a simulation.
