Lufthansa--WRONG!

From the Munich Airport's website, discussing the L1049G Constellation on display there:

[The Constellation] was also the first passenger plane with a pressurized cabin.

Wrong.

The first pressurized airliner was the Boeing Stratoliner. To read an article about the last flight of the sole remaining Stratoliner, click here.

Wow. Only 10 built. The chances of one of those surviving until 2003 were sure long ones, eh ?

Especially since the survivors in the 1960s were being flown in SE Asia.

A much prettier than the 377 Stratocruiser.

The 377 was kind of ugly, no doubt.
