I agree with Will08 that the 777 seat feels more like premium economy. The seat is angled lie flat. I had a window seat and the partition was pressing against my shoulder for the whole flight. I definitely preferred the A380 flight. The meals and the service by the crew were perfectly fine.
It's a 7 hour flight though. I don't know how much benefit you'd make of the A380 facilities. And even with lounge access, I didn't find Dubai Airport that interesting. I had a 9 hour layover and I was happy to see the boarding call for my onward flight
as much as I don’t like the 777 (old version) in J for longer flights it’s nothing like premium economy
