Airbus A350 vs Boeing 787 Dreamliner: Which Reigns The King?
In the realm of advanced airliners, the Airbus A3 50 extra wide body, or XWB and Boeing 7 8 7 Dreamliner stand out as the industry's leading aircraft. They are both celebrated for their innovative technologies and performance, but they differ in design philosophy, range capabilities, and operational efficiencies. Find out in this episode of flig avia: How are they different and similar? And more important, which is the best aircraft?
Airbus A350 vs Boeing 787 Dreamliner: Which Reigns The King?
The Boeing 7 8 7 Dreamliner, which first flew in 2009, was designed to meet the demand for more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly aircraft. In response, Airbus launched the A3 50 in 20 13. The aircraft was originally planned as an upgraded A3 30 with new engines and improved aerodynamics. However, Airbus soon realized that a slightly enhanced A3 30 couldn't compete with the all-new, composite fuselage Dreamliner. Consequently, the A3 50 evolved into the A3 50 XWB, featuring a composite fuselage paired with metal wings. Boeing, an American aerospace company, produces the 7 8 7 Dreamliner, while Airbus, a European multinational aerospace corporation, manufactures the A3 50 XWB. Each company brings its own expertise and design philosophy to their aircraft.
Airbus A350 vs Boeing 787 Dreamliner: Which Reigns The King?
In terms of cockpit design, the Boeing 7 8 7 and Airbus A3 50 are both equipped with sophisticated glass cockpits that are the epitome of modern avionics innovation. The 7 8 7's cockpit retains a classic Boeing layout, offering a sense of familiarity for pilots transitioning from the company's earlier aircraft models. It features a clean, intuitive design with large, customizable display screens, an electronic flight bag, and a heads-up display that projects vital flight information onto the windshield, allowing for seamless integration of information and controls. Airbus takes a different approach with the A3 50, where the cockpit is designed with a futuristic vision, prioritizing ergonomic comfort and employing the latest in fly-by-wire technology. The A350's cockpit is characterized by its sidestick controllers and a suite of large LCD screens that present a comprehensive view of flight and system data, thereby reducing pilot workload and enhancing overall flight safety.
I’m a Boeing fan, but I have to admit, Airbus really nailed it with the wider cabin on the A350.
Yep, you see
It's great to hear such balanced appreciation! The A350's wider cabin is definitely a strong point, offering more comfort and flexibility. Both Boeing and Airbus have their unique strengths, making them leaders in the aviation industry.
Both these planes will appeal in different ways. For some airlines A350 will be too much aircraft & will prefer the lower running costs of the smaller B787, as I suggest above they are not true direct ( although there may be some overlap ) competitors & this is backed-up by excellent sales & order books for both. B787 is offering terrific advantages to airlines over previous model aircraft in many aspects such as efficiency, emissions & comfort.
A350 was meant to compete with the 777X. Not the smaller 787.
@roberthowell7095 And the 737 was meant to be a short-range low capacity aircraft!
I’ve flown on both the A350 and the 787. Both offer a smooth ride, but I did notice the extra space on the A350.
Cool! I’d love flying airbus too
That's a great observation! The A350’s extra cabin width definitely enhances passenger comfort, especially on long flights. Both aircraft provide a great experience, but those few extra inches can make a noticeable difference.
Travelled several times in both.
A350 every time - quieter and more spacious.
Thanks a lot for your helpful sharing
Would you choose to fly again on the Dreamliner?
@@FLIGAVIA No objection to to the Dreamliner at all, just a preference for the A350 - for me the quietness is critical for getting to sleep on a long journey (typically between Europe and Asia). In that respect, the A380 is better than both by a long way.
As an aviation enthusiast, I find it fascinating how Airbus and Boeing have different design philosophies. Both the A350 and 787 are incredible feats of engineering!
Uh, but choose one my friend
Absolutely! It's incredible to see how both manufacturers approach design and innovation in unique ways, yet both achieve outstanding performance and efficiency. Their competition drives the industry forward!
The range difference is pretty significant. No wonder airlines like Singapore Airlines prefer the A350 for ultra-long-haul flights.
Yep, the long haul trip
Yes, the A350's extended range makes it ideal for ultra-long-haul routes like those operated by Singapore Airlines. It's impressive how much farther it can fly, giving airlines more flexibility in their route planning.
I had no idea the A350 could accommodate up to 440 passengers! That’s massive.
yep its capacity has never disappointed
That tail camera on the A350 is such a cool feature! It’s great for aviation geeks like me.
yep that's cool
The different engine options are fascinating. The choice between GE and Rolls-Royce engines must be tough for airlines.
yep both are nice
As an Economy Traveller, I have flown in both the Dreamliner and Airbus A350 (& btw, A380) and having flown several times with both, in approximately the same locations towards the rear of each aircraft, my perception is the A350 is more comfortable (but that may be due to Airline specifics) but the A350 has less wind noise at cruise altitude compared to the Dreamliner. To prove a point for myself, I measured the cabin noise in both cases using a NIOSH Sound Level Meter App on my iPhone which confirmed my perception that the A350 is the quieter of the two aircraft. Cheers!
No argument here. Thanks for sharing the app, btw
Only in Airbus we trust🥰❤️😍
love A350 ✈✈✈
It’s interesting to see how Airbus shifted from upgrading the A330 to developing an entirely new A350 to compete with the 787.
yep thanks for your feedback
787 silent but cramped with airline seat config. A350 all the way!
I love your cmt
Not that quiet..
Try JAL with their 2-4-2 seating, what the 787 as originally designed for.
The operational efficiencies of both aircraft are impressive. I can see why they’re leading the industry.
Have you had experience with both of them?
A350 for me, comfort.
I feel the same
I love the customizable LED-lit cabins on both aircraft. It really enhances the in-flight experience.
thanks for your comment
1:00 is wrong. The A350 does not have metal wings. They are fully cabon composite. The A330NEO has new shaped metal wings
thanks for your feedback
As a passenger I prefer the 787 over A350. The cabin design of the 787 with its huge windows are simply amazing
Yes, thanks for sharing, many people like it too
A350 for the crown
Have you ever flown on the A350? please share
Maximum cruise altitude A350 also FL430 or to be exactly 43,100 ft to accommodate flying in Meters of Flight level in China Airspace. I’m so glad to have a chance to fly Airbus A350-900.
nice thanks for sharing
The use of carbon fiber reinforced polymers in these planes is a game-changer for durability and fuel efficiency.
thanks for feedback
I prefer the A350. It is more spacious and seems to be equally as quiet.
Los dos no generan ruidos
@@AndresDeLaTorre-xv7wy thanks for your feedback
I wonder how much the lower purchase price of the 787 influences airlines decisions.
✈✈✈
The difference in maximum takeoff weight is pretty significant. Shows how much heavier the A350 is compared to the 787.
thanks for sharing
Boeing’s manual control philosophy is something I really appreciate as a fan of traditional piloting.
thanks for sharing your thoughts ✈️✈️✈️
A350 competes with 777 NOT 787!
yep thanks for comment
Artificially produced video, there should be a viewer advisory
✈️
I totally hate AI generated speech/narration.
The fuel efficiency of these planes is mind-blowing. It’s amazing how far aviation technology has come in terms of environmental impact.
They all possess modern technology, right?
The king is only the A380
Very well said
100% agree
I’ve flown on both, and while I love the Dreamliner, the extra space on the A350 is noticeable.
yeah thanks for your feedback
It is my understanding the A350 was built to compete with the 777X Not the 787.
Cant see the competition. 777x MAX?
787 terribly cramped! Absolutely beaten by the fantastic A350!
thanks for sharing
Not a word of the quality problems of Boeing planes.
✈✈✈thanks for reminding
It is my understating that the A350 has a lower purchase price!
I have flown on both and must say I much prefer the A350 flying experience. The bonus is it’s not a Boeing! I no longer trust Boeing.
thanks for sharing your experience
It's A350 vs 777 not 787
777x
It’s great to see both Airbus and Boeing pushing the boundaries of aviation technology.
yep which one do you prefer?
Unfortunately for Boeing, now that some routes now need to avoid Russian airspace, the 787s reduced range has become an issue. Some airlines are now having to choose the A350 over the 787.
I am surprised that we haven't seen an extended range 787 to accommodate the new realities.
Or is it that their development resources are tied up elsewhere?
thanks for your feedback
Boeing is struggling enough just trying to get their shit together with the planes they currently have let alone trying to modify any of them.
I recently flew the 350 on one leg and the 787 on the return leg, with same seat number on both legs. For me the 350 was quieter and more comfortable.
yeah thanks for sharing your experience
The cockpit designs are so interesting! Boeings more hands-on approach versus Airbus’s automation is a huge difference.
They do differently 😂😂😂
I will say the Airbus is more hands-on approach. Joystick drive is more natural and take less space.
Indeed, it's fascinating how each manufacturer prioritizes different aspects of pilot interaction. Boeing's focus on manual control versus Airbus's emphasis on automation highlights their distinct philosophies. Both approaches have their own advantages!
Your pricing is opposite. A350 is cheaper.
thanks for your feedback
The A350 particularly the 1000 variant is a stunning aircraft, offers passengers a fantastic experience, the 787 is certainly lacking behind in terms of comfort, range and reliability.
thanks for feedback, have you flown on both?
i'M NOT GOING TO ARGUE, A350 every time, Best airliner bar none! 787 questionable build as with all Boeing products under their present management. I can now book through a travel agency now that gives me the option of what Aircraft I want to fly on. Need I say more? Dreamliner? That has undoubtably the wrong name now- to many connotations
thanks for your comment
I used to love the B787, but I now avoid flying on it, considering the allegations by the latest Boeing whistleblower.
yep I can get that
This comparison is mostly apples to oranges, as the 787 and A350 serve different niches of the market for the most part.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts
The service ceiling difference is interesting. I wonder how often these planes actually fly that high.
thanks for your comment
a350 is the best !
Surely! A350 is the one
I’ve flown on both and noticed the smoother ride on the A350. Anyone else have the same experience?
same here, I prefer Airbus plane✈️✈️✈️
The AHHH-350 😭
We're still trying to work this out 😮💨 thank you for reminding
Both great aircraft & not true direct competitors so there`s room for both to thrive & this is exacly what we see. B787 has sold better but A350 was later to market & is gaining ground. These two aircraft will be around for very many years to come particularly if you factor Neo`s for each in the not too distant future....you can`t better than these two.
thanks for sharing! which one do you personally prefer?
The choice of engines for the 787 is impressive. Both GE and Rolls-Royce offer fantastic options.
which one do you prefer?
Sounds exciting. Looking fwd to these aircraft. Brought up with an appreciation of flying. Dad’s apprenticeship years ago was with Qantas. At 68, lost count of the number of flights in my life. 👏🇦🇺
thanks for your feedback ✈️✈️✈️
The A350’s advanced computerized systems must really help reduce pilot workload on long flights.
yeah thanks for your feedback
The A350 has a conventional computerized architecture with one computer for each system (hydraulic, pressurization…)like the A320 or the B777. The B787 has a complete new architecture with 2 powerful core computers having two channels each one and receiving datas from every system (with its own software card).
For that, the B787 is one step ahead. Concerning workload, in case of abnormal situation, on the Boeing, there is no cascade of failures coming up on the EICAS like the Airbus
The Airbus A350 is my choice because the A350 has more to offer.
yep thanks for your comment
Comparing the flat airplane cost between the two doesn't make sense, since the A350 carries more stuff. You could break it down in costs per seat, or just per cargo kg, since an economy seat is the least profitable contributor on the flight.
thanks for sharing ✈️ ✈️ ✈️
Very likely, Airbus's composite A-350 benefited from NOT being "#1" -- i.e. first out of the gate. Likely Airbus learned a LOT from Boeing's pioneering effort with the 787.
Puede ser 787 es confiable asta el no e ti cero accidente A350 ya los tiene
Excellent video once again dude. I have never flown with A350 so I don’t have any thoughts about this aircraft. But i have flown with United’s 787-9 twice from Athens to Newark and back to Athens and according to my view is the best aircraft ever. I really felt my respiratory system so healthy during the flight while wing flex is something beyond incredible. Boeing did such a great job when designed the Dreamliner pushing Airbus to make its rival response.
Greetings from Greece. 🇬🇷🇺🇸
many thanks for your feedback, hope one day you will experience the A350! and please share with us then
✈️✈️✈️
The best widebody jet for economy class passengers in my experience of all the ones still in widespread operation is the A380 by a big margin. The A350 is second best and the 787 third. The A330 is fourth and a long way behind in last place the the current 777. Hopefully the new 777x will be better for passenger comfort.
Pricing seems inaccurate if I am to believe other blogs
thanks for your feedback
Which is fuel efficient and fly smoothly?
A350 maybe
350 all the way
great choice 👌
They don't compete. The A350 completes with the 777X and the 787 competes with the A330ceo/neo. You may as well do a comparison between the A380 and the 717.
yep thanks for your comment
@@FLIGAVIA You should do a video on Qantas' new A350-1000ULR 'Sunrise' aircraft with the extra fuel tank and 238 passenger limit that will fly the longest routes in the world such as SYD/MEL to LAX/LHR in early 2026.
Never flown an A350 but like the Boeing family of jets. Really like the 787-9 for long haul, very comfortable. My understanding of the shorter range on the 787-10 is that it need different wings / engines which kind of defeats Boeings uniformity between the models? 11:08
thanks for sharing your experience✈️✈️✈️
At 0:58 you say that the A350 XWB consists of a composite fuselage, paired with metal wings. But the re-invented A350 (the "XWB" extension was meanwhile seemingly dropped by Airbus marketing) is all-composite:
thanks for reminding us
787
✈✈✈
Airbus are better built, more efficient and have a longer range...
yep I love A350
the voice is artificially designed it gives a sense of untruthfullness.
And you know this, how? Is your comment "artificially designed? . . ."
I don’t have utter truth about the statement, but Prosody; the intonation is not real, the lapse between word and word, there’re regular unnatural lapses. It’s not a pejorative comment just a feeling. But I real think that voice is artificial. I am not a bot. I’ ve listened a lot CHATGPT and there’re certain common patterns.
@@cesarchoya6961 I agree with you, for instance it pronounces mach as match not mark and its annoying how it keeps calling the A350 as the A350 XWB which was the name Airbus called it on initially proposing it.
It is now just called the A350.Together with the cutting and pasting audio it really is not worth listening to.
The 787 competitor is the à 330 not the a 350 .
thanks for your feedback
The cockpit design differences are fascinating! Which do pilots generally prefer: the hands-on Boeing or the automated Airbus?
thanks for your feedback
Boeing has a different cockpit design for every line, while Airbus keeps it consistent across all aircraft models. This means that as an A330 pilot it's significantly easier to get qualification for the A350 then swapping between Boeing planes, or between brands. With the side sticks in the Airbus cockpit you have more personal space too.
✈️
thanks for your comment ✈️ ✈️ ✈️
787 is flex wing design state of the art fly smoothly and fuel efficient.New wing technology not solid wing like old model plane.
thanks for sharing
Two different aircraft…
indeed. which one do you prefer?
I’ve always been a fan of Boeing, but the A350’s wider cabin is a game-changer for comfort. Thoughts?
yeah A350 is my fav
Depends on the cabin configuration.
AI from mispronunciations. An Airbus channel.
thanks for your feedback, we're aviation fans
No. That's not it. This voice is computer generated. It is a "fake" AI voice, and it is a cheap and crummy one.
Both the A350 and 787 are impressive, but I’m curious, which one is more fuel-efficient over long distances?
A350
✈️ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️
@@FLIGAVIAWe operate both: the A350 and the B787, but we don’t have the same conclusion. If you say so, give comparison with statistics for different kind of flights….
The range on the A350 is really impressive. Does this mean it’s more popular with airlines for longer routes?
maybe, airlines love A350
Yes. For example on routes from Europe to South America, South Africa and especially Asia, since Russia closed the airspace at the start of the Ukraine war, which lead to up to 1000nm longer routes.
@@FLIGAVIAeven the ones with peeling paint?
The Dreamliner is a good plane. But Boeing put a very aggressive pricing tag in the first years. Then shit happened. With repetitive quality issues. And until now, despite very impressive high sales, the B787 is not yet profitable. While the A350 will make profit from this year.
nice thanks for sharing! ✈️
PW doesnt power any of these aircraft s😊
thanks for your comment
FLIG AVIA's use of this really cheap and cheesy "robo voice" (computer generated) tells us that FLIG does not respect its viewers. Using an AI voice instead of a human narrator is like showing a middle finger to viewers. That is a shame, because the content here is really great. But it is very painful and maddening to listen to this video.
thanks for your feedback! we are improving the voice ✈️ ✈️ ✈️
Not just the voice, but please add a pause between sentences!
I totally hate fake AI speech/narration.
The topic is lovely, but listening to a computer is sooo irritating.
thanks for your feedback, we'll improve the voice
Someone should reprogram the narration computer to say Mach correctly. It's Mock phonetically
Well, not really an o. But close enough.
Horrible AI voice over.
thanks for feedback! the problem will improve soon
there is no comparison between these two. 350 far far better then 787
yeah thanks for comment
