Emirates A380 is pretty meh. Narrow seats and slow as hell boarding. But service is okay for size for flight, not a problem approaching crew and asking for whatever you desire during quiet periods, dont be the douche that presses the call button unless your sandwiched on a non-aisle seat with aisler asleep.
777s are better in my opinion generally not as cramped and much faster boarding and disembarking. The newer the plane the generally smaller the legroom or seat width. 777 are much older, but seem equally quiet - much quieter than a 747 or a340 etc..
787 seems a nightmare plane, with exception of one or two airlines such air india putting out 33" legroom in eco. 787 set a precedence to cram in as much as you can, look at Oman Air that outfitted their a330 with 34" in economy as the fleet standard several years ago, but on new dreamliners starting toc creep into its route map its 31", and they fly similar lengths, that's the future unfortunately - virgin and BA equally shit at 31" on 787
If you continue to desire A380, then Singapore is far superior, economy upper desk, service and seat walk all over Emirates A380, but if your in the states then any non-us airline will look like premium economy in comparison, even Easyjet ;)
- lathiat 9y agoYou're mistaken. Emirates A380 have some of the widest economy seats in the air at 17.8". Many planes with 17". Very little >18"
- sitepodmatt 9y agoSingapore is 19" ;) Although Im generally happy with 18", it felt much more cramped but I guess some of that could be attributed to being in largest eco section downstairs, Ill retract the narrow seat comment based on standards, it's a crowded plane and that is certainly felt when in the main section.
