I was particularly interested to see how the upper deck doors open since I could never work this out when I've looked at them before (from the inside).
Here's a close up:


Looks like the lower half of the door has to fold down in order to let you out. I guess that this is the part that contains the slide.

They have 9 747's left but I think they are being phased out in favour of A380s.
