In response to "The Dreamliner is a plane that I want to fly in" by JD

It's fine. It's newer and all. It doesn't have window shades!!!

you have a dimmer switch for your window (which the crew can override if they feel like it)

yeah. it's ok. I prefer an A380 or even a 777ER. - mafic Dec 8, 16:28
That's part of why I want to be in a seat in one. ;-) - JD Dec 8, 14:33 3
- I think the 777x (which hasn't has not entered service yet with any airline) will have folding wingtips. - ty97 Dec 8, 14:36 2
  - Oh. Actually that's right. Well there's still the engine cowling diameter being larger than a 737 fuselage thing -- nm - JD Dec 8, 14:38 1
    - Years ago, we deplaned a 777 at Frankfurt down stairs to a bus so we were on the tarmac next to the plane. - ty97 Dec 8, 14:40
My main problem with the 787 is that is was designed to be 8-across seating and comfortable. The airline, of course, made them 9-across seating.. - ty97 Dec 8, 14:28 2
- I wonder how much more people would pay for a ticket in one that was 8-across. - the wrong element Dec 8, 17:20
- I was on an Air France A350 on the way back from site. it was nice. -- nm - mafic Dec 8, 16:32
