That's an insult to WN.

We're supposed to discuss the topic of the thread, not attack each other.
In response, what I said is the truth. I've flown hundreds of thousands of TPAC and TATL miles out of SFO, and all of them were 777 and 747.
This is not a dream. This is my experience. And, that's what I wrote about.

The 787 is advertised as having some advantages, e.g., better cabin pressure and humidity. But as far as I know, the air in a 747 is exactly the same as in a 767. What's the difference?
I find the larger aircraft to be smoother, quieter, and more comfortable. I find the smaller aircraft, to be noisier and less comfortable. There's a tangible difference in how I feel on arrival.
It's no different than driving for 10 hours the cheapest possible rental car vs. driving in a big SUV. Even if both had the same seats, you'd feel more rested in the SUV.

I will consider the 787 after teething pains are gone due to the humidity - I dry out too easy, carrying saline with me every flight. That would be a decent trade off v the more space in a 747.
