The video I saw this morning had Wideload getting off of a much smaller plane than a 747. Not sure if it was file or the real deal.

Oftentimes the VP or other higher dignitaries use one of a couple of modified Boeing 757-200s that the Air Force has. They’re painted similarly to the VC-25s (the 747s) and have VIP interiors, and I think a 757 can make the trip from Washington to Copenhagen without a refueling stop, at least eastbound with the jet stream.
