I've flown the A350 across the pacific and returned on the 777 and I found a striking commonality between them. This video makes sense of it all. The 350 is a massive plane. It looks small from the outside due to its styling but it is massive! Cheers!

Go back to the early 2000's so you'll know how the A350 came to be a competitor to the then brand new B787 on the scene at the time. "Cody" doesn't seem to mention that detail in his presentation. The A350 grew in size in time to drift into 777 territory to what people think about competing types from Boeing and AIRBUS. ORIGINALLY: 787 vs A350-800. Then the scene changed with the A350-900 and the A350-1000 even though the A350-900 was going against the B787-9 for a time until "XWB" titles started appearing with stretches of the A350 series. This column is meant for "Warp's" statement above. I meant to add: the A330 series started competing with B777s when Boeing got cleared to operate under ETOPS and in turn AIRBUS's A340s went bye and better versions of the A330 came into play against the 777 series of aircraft. A330s vs B777s. A350s vs B787s.

[@ant2312]

what I will say seeing as I've flown on both - Eitihad 787, Finnair and Qatar A350 is that the A350 is more comfortable because XTRA WIDE BODY. 787's were designed as a 2-3-2 but nearly every airline fits them out as a 3-3-3 thus meaning a 17 inch seat width as opposed to the 3-3-3 on the A350 XTRA WIDE BODY which has 18 to 18.5 inch seat width in economy. Thats how I know when people saying they prefer the 787 are probably Americans who have never flown on either and just lying and just making stuff up to defend Boeing

[@w8stral]

No, the 787's were not designed as 2-3-2. That was the 767 a much narrower airplane. 787 is same width as the a330, good for 8 wide. 2-4-2 seating. A350 is wider good for 3-3-3 seating, but not quite as wide as 777.

[@ABbuilds]

Very happy to see this explained! I think you’re right, people saw both aircraft types were made from composite materials so made the assumption they’re the same class - but they forget that the 787 replaced the 767 to compete with the very popular A330, and the A350 replaced the 340 to better compete with the 777. Will be interesting to see how the 777x competes with the A350 once the global crisis has tapered off and we can see true results.

And it was just in 2004. 30 years of basic construction being there and everyone went full boooo. Meanwhile Boeing modifying it's 1968 737 (that heavily resembles the 1958 707 in many features) for the fourth time in mid-2010s (almost 60 year old "bones") - and everybody seems to like the Max (which I personally hate and won't fly if only not in a desperate need).

[@pavansoni06]

Very informative. But what it misses is the fact that range now takes priority over the number of seats. I’m a aviation strategy consultant myself and I’ve built plenty business plans / fleet plans for airline customers. And sorry to inform you, but for most of the airlines, the 787 and the A350 are the two options they have to select from for their long term strategy and planning. Large capacity aircraft are going out of fashion (need) for airline consumers, as evident by the fall of A380 and the 777s. As the concept of “thick routes” (point to point) is taking over, the “hub and spoke” model is going out of trend. Airlines want more and more point to point connectivity rather than huge number of seats to a hub airport and then smaller aircraft ops from there. Hence, it eventually boils down to, 1)Ownership cost, 2)yearly maintenance expense and 3)ability to make upto 75%+ PLF on most potentially available routes. So one can choose to ignore these aspects, but it is the reality and airlines are not picking between a 777/777x and A350, but rather between a 787 and A350.

Flown on both, like both :) Comfy, modern, relaxing long haul cabin in both. You definitely feel a marked difference compared to the old guard on the same routes. From the cabin it’s pretty clear that the A350 is bigger, I agree with the remarks that it’s more reminiscent of the largeness of a triple 7 cabin and not a Dreamliner. The Dreamliner has always felt very spacious and modern but 767-like in overall size from cabin perspective.

[@MagnumMike44]

I agree, and looking at the A350's seating capacity and the triple bogie landing gears, which is on the 777, it's obvious that the A350 is a modern competitor of the current variant of the 777 and the future variant, which has been delayed. I would say that the Boeing 787, which was originally designed to replace Boeing's 767, is a direct competitor of Airbus' A330.

I love the 787 and would be flying it for our airline, if it wasn’t for the longer trips. I prefer shorthaul routes, unfortunately our 787 do not fly these 🤨 To me the A350 cockpit is ugly, and the window design looks like you’re in the Spaceshuttle.

Thank you, I’ve seen a lot of channels making videos on 787vsa350. I’ve been trying to tell them for a long time that the a350 competes with the b777 and not the 787. More people need to see this video.

@Sean ????? So if I was so rude but It is actually annoying when Airbus fans bring up the max

[@NovejSpeed3]

Coby you hit the nail on the head with this one. I think people confuse the "rivalry" because the A350 was initially a response to the Dreamliner, but it morphed into so much more. Fun fact the A350 also used the infamous lithium ion batteries that the 787 kept burning up. Once that happened Airbus quietly replaced theirs with the standard (heavier) lead batteries but airlines can still opt for the Lithium ion batteries today (and some have). Cant' beat that weight saving and power output LOL. I have not had the honor of flying on either so I can't comment. But I can say Subscribed.

[@stevecphotos]

Great video! I'd love to see more videos with similar comparisons. Maybe 737 variants vs. a320/a321......love math when someone else is doing the work! :D

[@nicholasmackenzie-rowe68]

Take the A321 out of the equation. It is a mid range aircraft. The 737 is a dead duck. Boeing overeached rather than build a new aircraft. Should have listened to the engineers not the bean counters before the 800, never mind the max. The 737 is an early 60's design, way beyond its lifespan .

[@Omar_Jafarli]

I agree, the A350 is too good for the 787.

[@JornGroen]

[@jetset4me1]

I have flown the A350 from Hong Kong to LAX, the 787-9 from SFO to SIN and the 787-10 from SGN to SIN. The configurations, seating, service made a difference in my experience. They were all more enjoyable to the older aircraft.

[@vishiferrari10]

At 5:54, there's an error in the calculations shown. 68.4 and 266.5 for their respective A350 types has been interchanged.

[@themindset3329]

I've never flown on either. I'm gonna fly in a 787 in October from Frankfurt to Tokyo And I'm gonna work in a fleet of A330neo as a flight attendant My pick is still the A350

[@ScottRothsroth0616]

“... recently retired their entire triple seven (777) fleet” - 4:53 If I remember correctly Delta cancel “their” (order was made by Northwest Airlines, before the merger) order for 787s for A350s as well as replaced their 747-400s/747-451s (again Northwest Airlines, before the merger) with A350s. Assuming I remember correctly, does anyone have any theories as to why?

[@jefflewis4]

It was the delayed delivery of the 787. Had Delta gotten the 787 by 2010 they likely would have taken delivery. But the delay allowed them to defer their purchase decision. Delta ordered 25 A330neos a few years afterwards in addition to the A350's. By 2016 when the cancel decision was made Delta just didn't need the 787.

[@w8stral]

Delta has bought Airbus exclusively for the last 2 decades. They still fly some old Boeing/McDonald Douglas planes, but most have been retired.

[@holdensv2000]

Because the A350 is 12 years younger built with more composites better wings and more powerful engines better fly-by-wire systems it a no brainer that why Delta and more American Airlines will pick later

[@ScottRothsroth0616]

jefflewis4 Thank you.

[@gelinrefira]

Makes a lot of sense. The era of 4 engines jet is ending anyway. There are almost no routes that will demand a 500 passenger jet that can be profitably operated. They have to retire their 747s, and if they are also retiring their old 777s. They really need to fill the gap for the large jetliners, and it will be better to just replace them all with the same new jet that can fulfill all the roles they need and really bank on the economies of scale.

[@brandan648]

I use to also think that A350 and b787 was competitors mostly cause they look very similar but as it was revealed that a330neo was its competitor it made more sense to me and it made more sense that the a350s competitor was the b777 since the A350-1000 was designed to carry passengers in the range of the b777

[@andrewsavage6738]

Both the A350 and 787 are remarkable planes. The have their respective place in the industry.

[@gabrielortiz5283]

Basically the 787 is a 767 successor.

[@bwc1976]

Except without the 767's best feature which was the 2-3-2 seating. I've heard they're squeezing 9 people per row onto the 787 now, when it was designed for 8 like an A330.

Wasn’t the A350 a response to the 787 because airbus saw it had potential? I’m not saying it’s a *direct* competitor. Maybe that’s why some think it directly competes

A350s are wider and offers the same 3x3x3 seat config. Been flown in both I can say the XWB is roomier, seats are wider and engines is quieter. Can't say the same about japanese carriers as they use a different config for 787s (2x4x2) and nobody can deny this is the proper seat arrangement for the Boeing aircraft. I think both are beautiful and fulfill their purpouse over the average.

Another great example of this is the brazilian company TAM, that when started to merge with Lan Chile, begun to retired their a330s for the 787s. And now they are retiring their 777-200s and replacing the routes with A350s. They were a case with the Delta and Qatar all together.
