    A350 is better. Qantas chose the a350-1000 for Project Sunrise describing it as "the ultimate long range aircraft"

      It will be very interesting when the 777x if finally ready
      No doubt it too will be a great aircraft.

      The A350-1000 is indeed an impressive aircraft, and Qantas' choice for Project Sunrise showcases its capabilities as the "ultimate long-range aircraft." The A380 and A350 have unique strengths, and it's exciting to see the aviation industry evolve with such remarkable options. Each aircraft brings something special to the table, and it's great to see how they contribute to enhancing air travel for passengers worldwide.

    The A350 would probably still be the go-to for many airliners and it will depend on whether boeing can stick to their deadlines.
    I think it will take a few years for the 777x to become a staple in the fleets of airliners.
    I think both of these will serve us for the next few decades

    I can't help but wonder if these aircraft are becoming excessively large and costly to operate. The advancements in technology are impressive, but the escalating costs and sizes certainly raise some questions about sustainability in the long run. As these aircraft continue to grow in size and cost, could this trend potentially make air travel less affordable for the average passenger?

    • @jeanwhitehead1064
      @jeanwhitehead1064 Год назад

      Most airlines are operating at razor thin profit margins. The breakeven is often at 80+%. And with covid impacting long haul travel, I think it will take some time to make air travel cheaper.
      The A380 was a great attempt at reducing costs of long haul travel, but that came with a host of new challenges.

    • @AviationRepublic
      @AviationRepublic  Год назад +1

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts! You raise a valid point about the size and operating costs of modern aircraft. As technology evolves, aircraft have indeed become more sophisticated and efficient, allowing for impressive advancements in performance and passenger experience.
      It's true that larger aircraft can come with higher operating costs, but they also offer significant benefits, such as increased capacity and fuel efficiency. The industry constantly strives to balance these factors to ensure sustainability and affordability in the long run.
      While some aircraft have grown in size, airlines carefully consider the needs of their routes and passenger demand before adding new planes to their fleet. Additionally, ongoing research and development in aerospace engineering aim to improve fuel efficiency and reduce environmental impact.
      As for air travel affordability, it's a concern that the industry takes seriously. The competition among airlines and the advancement of technology have helped keep airfares relatively affordable for many passengers. Moreover, airlines often offer a range of ticket options to cater to different budgets.
      Ultimately, the aviation industry is committed to making air travel accessible and sustainable for a broader audience. Continuous innovation, careful planning, and responsible practices are essential to ensure that air travel remains both affordable and environmentally responsible.

    There are a lot of operational reasons why airlines go with the a350. Apart from it being flown already. First up no airport issues due not having folding wings. One issues with those and you are stuck on the taxiway. Crew trains due to commonality with the a330 if airlines opt to have combined crews.

    While I really enjoy flying Boeing, I never like liked the 777, unlike the 787 which really is a dream, at least in biz class. Given the stats for fuel consumption, reputation and delivery reliability Airbus A350 has a solid head start against the 777-X, it seems logical the A350 will prevail. Personally, price matters, but I always look are the aircraft type being used

    • @AviationRepublic
      @AviationRepublic  Год назад

    There's a few mistakes in this video:

    I think any aircraft with 400-plus seats is just too big. How often can airlines (unless they are Emirates) fill up planes of that size? Forget about efficiency if the plane is only 70 to 80% full.

    You can actually do 3-4-3 on A350-1000 and its seen on PR Fiesta class A350-1000. Which would make it like a B777-x in the same configuration.

      3-4-3 on an a350 is a nightmare. The seats would be 16.5 inches wide in economy. I'm happy airbus made their a350 optimized for 3-3-3 at 18inch seat width.

      The B777-8 has not yet found its market. Except for the cargo version. I hope Boeing will not face the same situation as Airbus with the A380...Emirates was the leading airline for that program too..

    • @jamesau4296
      @jamesau4296 Год назад +2

      A380 is also technically can be in its own league since it was Higher capacity than 747-8, but the real question is, is the market big enough for the "in its own league" to be actually turning into any real-life advantage. Considering that the Big 3 US carrier ordered only 787-sized widebody and Surrendered plans to introduce any 777-300 sized new airplanes in the coming future.

    What is with the every airline wants airbus stuff? That is false. For example you have got the lowcost airlines like southwest, spirit, Ryanair, easyJet, etc. they can't operate the a350 because it doesn't fit their network. Then you got the airlines like Alaska airlines Alaska Airlines are in the middle of getting rid of airbus aircraft so it is unlikely that they will order the a350. Its true that a lot of airlines want the a350 but not EVERY airline wants it.

    • @jamesau4296
      @jamesau4296 Год назад +1

      Really good question to ask. But mines answer to this question should be, the US carrier knows they cannot compete with carriers from Overseas on international routes (Not counting ME3 which you may ask how many fuel subsidies they got, Or East Asian Carriers which they have hardworking employees with wage half of USA - Taiwan average salary should be less than half of USA, Even Europe carrier could be better than them), they are hurdled by Strong Labour Union and High price index as US base carrier, so they give up hope of dominating any Major city route pairs(LHR-JFK, ICN-SFO) and focus more on flying direct from US to secondary city pairs which they are untouched by Foreign carriers.
