NZ without a doubt, in part because SQ's A350s are inferior to other SQ aircraft in PE.
One problem with the A350 is that although it has a wider fuselage than a 787, the class that doesn't benefit from this is PE. A350s are wider than 787s, but it means narrower seats in a 2-4-2 configuration in PE compared to 2-3-2 in PE on a 787. NZ has greater seat pitch and seat width than SQ.
