But, emotionally and physically, I clearly prefer the newer 320 planes to fly on over the newer 737s to fly on. Clearly, there's the cabin width, which will remain an advantage of the Airbus, but currently there seems to be a generally more modern feel to the interiors and the general experience - although I recognise that such may be down to the individual airlines.
Shame it's gone this way but I guess inevitable. I just hope we don't have to pay higher fares to pay for it.
Yes, on cabin width, the 320 beats the 737, but I've flown on some pretty spartan 320s which don't feel modern at all. And the newer 738's than AA has are much nicer inside then their older birds. Cabin width aside, how an aircraft is outfitted is more the taste of the airline, not Airbus or Boeing.
