Wow, I'm now no longer as excited to fly on a 787 next weekend. (I had picked it out of other equipment options.)
The 787 and A380 are still the best planes (in terms of comfort, at least) on the market. It makes my 12 hour flights between HK and the UK way more bearable.
Have you travelled on an A350 yet?
The A350, in my opinion, is more comfortable than both (and I'm a big proponent of the A380 and 787 for comfort)
I give boeing a pretty hard time, but the 787 is great. It's far more comfortable than pretty much anything else out there. The windows alone make the experience better.
Only plane I've been on that I didn't feel the need to wear hearing protection.
Yeah I actually tuned off noise cancellation the other day.
That’s the tragedy of all this: they’re not completely failing to have good ideas, but the willingness to cut corners on safety mean everyone has to question what’s lurking beneath the surface. They would have sold a ton of aircraft anyway, but someone figured their bonus would be huge if they could make the profit margin a few percentage points higher.
