On a positive note though the air quality is much better. I had read numerous posts about it but never really believed it until my throat wasn't dry after an 8 hour flight. Prefer the 777 way more, though not as new. Would love to try the a350
The A350 is in my view much better in Y than the Dreamliner. Although I never flew B787 in C I suppose that A350 is superior there also. B787 has some strange seats (rows 5 and esp. 6) in C whereas A350 is nice in both C-sections. The A350 is probably the best longhaul commercial airplane at the moment, at least in the QR-configuration.
