We will all return to DOH together at the end of August and as it'll be in economy I need to decide if its worth taking the dreadful 787 economy seats or better to drive further to LHR for the far more spacious A380?!
Without sounding biased (being this threads creator). I would take the 787 into Cardiff as a time saver. The flight would unlikely be full and you'd have a good chance of being able to spread out a little. I also think the seat width that is 1 inch smaller than the A380's is a little bit over exagerated - it's half a inch etheir side which isn't noticeable.
I had the same dillema as you for this coming may but as I live closer to Cardiff than LHR (towards Swansea) I will be in the house a lot sooner!
