On daytime services WTP on a 787 is - in some ways - a better experience than First on a 777. Now I suspect for occasional travellers, or those who enjoy drinking, it may not make much difference but on the LHR-EWR / PHL services I'm able to go straight to the office and do 4 to 6 hours work without difficulty, something I would never think of doing after a 777 flight, given I start the day in NCL or EDI. And I'm one of the old lags around here.
