The final United Airlines flight on a Boeing 747 will go from San Francisco to Honolulu on Nov. 7.

So, for aviation enthusiasts who can't take United Airlines up on one of the final flights, maybe they can at least get their hands on one of these amenities kits or a trading card to celebrate the history of the Boeing 747.
