How comfortable is the Boeing 787 Dreamliner?

Question

The 787 Dreamliner is a new commercial airplane built by Boeing and is now in production.

Answer 1

Since the plane hasn't even flown yet, who knows? It should be just like every other airplane in service today.

Answer 2

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a mid-sized wide body, twin engined passenger airliner currently under development by Boeing and scheduled to enter service in 2008. (So it is a little hard to really know just yet exactly how comfortable it will be.)

It will carry between 210 and 330 passengers depending on the seating configuration, and will be more fuel-efficient than comparable earlier airliners. It will also be the first major airliner to use composite material for most of its construction.[1]

Answer 3

The A380 is a gigantic not particularly efficient plane. (It weighs a lot more than Airbus planned, limiting the payload it can carry.) As a result, it only makes sense on routes where the number of flights is limited, i.e., to and from slot controlled airports like London Heathrow, or where curfews limit the times of day they can fly, like Sydney. There are enough of those routes to make the A380 viable, but it's not a huge number of them. The 787 is half the size and much more flexible, suitable for long routes where there's either not enough traffic for a 747, or that airlines judge that they'll sell more seats by having more flights at different times.

Answer 5

Well, nobody knows for sure yet as it hasn't flown. At the max seating configuration it will be like your typical "cattle car", not very comfy at all. The more upscale three-class cabins will certainly be quite nice indeed in Business and First class. But coach will still be a cattle car.

Answer 6

Since the entire fuselage is made of carbon fiber, they would able to the humidity level and also increase the air pressure into the cabin. This will give you a sensation of being at a lower altitude and less dryness.

Answer 7

It's so comfortable it gives you the sensation of floating on air or even flying.
