Yes, whether dreaming or not, my experience on the 747-8 has been quite positive in LH and CA first class. May be the seats in the LH and CA upper deck could be better, but the feel in the large extended upper deck is second to none. I don't get the same feeling on the A380 whether it is SQ or LH and other. Sitting in the upper decks of a A380 is just like sitting in another plane, there is no similar nose-cone like section on the lower deck of A380. A380 is a feel of sandwiching two planes together! Nothing special other than ultra quiet cabin and engine.
I hate to use this word "Exclusive" to describe the nose-cone and upper deck experience. Perhaps it is the exclusive experience from other airplanes.
