I prefer Y class on A350 above all else (marginally trumping the upstairs on an A380) - I will never fly a B787 in Y in a 9 across setting again irrespective of the airline, it's truly horrible (joining the 3-4-3 777's).
And until airlines start trying to squeeze an extra seat on an A350 it will remain my goto plane - I will actively pay 10-20% more on a long haul. I have only flown it once on SIN-DOH but I think i've flown all of QR's Y class aircraft now and there is massive differences in comfort on different planes.
