When Godzilla appears in Hong Kong suffering from a severe meltdown, he attacks Kai Tak Airport, where numerous Boeing 747s are present. A Cathay Pacific 747-400 in the process of taking off has to take evasive manoeuvres to avoid hitting Godzilla. Multiple 747s appear in the climactic battle at Haneda Airport, owned by either Inter Air Lines, Japan Airlines, ANA or numerous other airlines.
Trivia
- During the battle at Haneda Airport, there is an infamous scene in which, due to Toho's camera techniques of blending in footage from the set with footage of the actual location being featured, a 747 belonging to ANA can be seen taxiing towards the runway whilst Destoroyah flies past, pulling dirt and bits of the runway as a result of Godzilla being dragged along the ground by Destoroyah's tail.
