I have flown D1 in both but have not been on the A350 since late 2019. Obviously the A350 would be a no-brainer were it not for the far less convenient flight time.
I always try to fly the A350 on the way back from Europe as I find it way better than the A330.
The day of departure is always a dead day for me because everything is about packing and getting to the airport. So a few hours would make no difference. Now, if this is your first time in Paris and you don’t plan on going back for a while, maybe these few hours are very important to you.
