The commercial aviation industry has changed drastically over the past several decades. When the Boeing 707 and Douglas DC-8 were introduced, these aircraft helped to push the commercial market into the jet age in the 1950s and 1960s. Additionally, Boeing introduced the Boeing 747 in the 1960s, the first widebody airliner. These innovative aircraft designs helped to connect passengers around the world and truly helped shape the definition of long-haul travel for years to come.
