Some technical information about the planes:

A330 cabin width - 5.28m (17.33 ft)
A350 cabin width - 5.61m (18.4 ft)
A380 cabin width, upper deck - 5.8m (19.03 ft)
A380 cabin width, main deck - 6.5m (21.3 ft)
777 cabin width - 5.96m (19.6 ft)

0.17m (6.84 inch) difference between the A380 upper deck and a 777.

0.37m (14.4 inch) difference between A350 and 777.
