Is the A350-1000 a good plane
It depends on what you need it for and how much you are willing to spend. If you want a long-range aircraft with maximum passengers, then the A350-1000 is perfect for you. But if you have a shorter route within seven hours, then the Boeing 787-10 will give you better economics.
What are the advantages of the A350-1000
Large seating capacity
The 7m longer A350-1000 fuselage increases the seating capacity by 50 seats reaching over 400 passengers in 3-class arrangement. This provides from 15% to 25% lower seat-mile cost compared to competing products.
Is Airbus A350 the best
The Bottom Line: The Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 787-9 are very similar aircraft, suited for similar missions. As one would expect, the slightly larger A350-900 has a seat-mile cost advantage, while the 787-9 has an advantage in cost per block hour. These aircraft are competitive, and nearly tie in economic performance.
Is the A350 reliable
While the Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 provide reliable performance, the former offers a more comprehensive package regarding maintainability and agility on the ground. The A350 has a simplified maintenance process that is more efficient and cost-effective than its rivals.
Is A350 better than 777
Both aircraft offer a range suitable for the longest standard long-haul flights. The A350-1000 beats the 777-9 here, with a range of 7,992 nm (14,800 km). The 777-9 offers slightly less at 7,290 nm (13,500 km).
Why is the A350 so popular
The A350 footprint is 52% smaller than that of the 747-400. When you combine the design and technology that Airbus have put into the build of the A350 with the efficiency of the Rolls Royce Trent XWB, you get the quietest, most efficient wide body long-haul aircraft in the skies.
What is the rival of the A350-1000
The global A350 fleet had completed more than 1,025,000 flights on more than 1000 routes without accidents. It succeeds the A340 and competes against Boeing's large long-haul twinjets: the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, the Boeing 777, and its successor, the 777X.
Why do pilots like A350
On an Airbus A350, you can be flying at 35,000 to 40,000 feet, but the cabin will be at around 5,500 feet. (On a conventional aluminium aircraft, the cabin will be around 8,000 feet.) This helps with the effects of jet lag and how you feel after a flight too. It's less fatiguing.
Which is quieter 777 or A350
At the monitor locations around Heathrow, the analysis has shown that the Airbus A350 is significantly quieter than the Airbus A330, Airbus A340 and Boeing 777. The A350 is on average up to 6 dB quieter on departure than the A330 and 777, and up to 9 dB quieter than the A340.
Which is quieter 787 or A350
While both aircraft have much quieter cabins than their competitors, the A350 definitely feels a lot quieter than the 787, no matter which part of the plane you're sitting in. The A350 is in fact the quietest twin-engined aircraft in the skies.
Why the A350 is better
It's greener. The Airbus A350 burns 25 per cent less fuel than most previous generation aircraft, so it generates less carbon dioxide. It is quieter too, so it's better for the environment in a number of ways.
