Totally agree Florin. The 777 is a loud beast better suited to being a cargo aircraft. The A380 is by far the best in-flight experience of any aircraft be that Airbus or Boeing. Airbus over sound proofs its aircraft esp the A380 and A350. Boeing won't ever come to that party as it would add weight; Boeing only care about airlines, not their passengers, whereas Airbus cares about both.I refuse to fly the 777 aircraft on anything over 5 hours simply horrible atmospherics and noise +++! I don't think the 777x will be any better noise or atmospherics wise. When the A380 goes it will be the A350 for me wherever possible esp on long and ultra long haul. Boeing just doesn't cut it for me to waste my money on a horrible in-flight experience. Wont even start on the cramped in any class Boeing 777!
