The Lucky number seven is often associated with gambling. But where did the Lucky Number seven come from? The number seven is not Lucky in all cultures, for instance in Chinese the number seven is not Lucky at all and is sometimes considered unlucky. This is why Boeing Aircraft Co. did not sell a lot of 777s to the Chinese.

After all the last thing you would want to do is get into an unlucky aircraft right? An interesting point would be that according to the NTSB the Boeing 777 has a perfect safety record believe it or not. Maybe he really is lucky and maybe that is a reason to fly it? But superstition and numerology aside why is 777 considered so lucky in the Western World?
