I was really looking forward to the 350 Upper Class Suite.
But after my first flight on it, I think I prefer the 787.
Don't get me wrong, it's been a monumental leap forward. And a huge number of airlines are now using this Super Diamond based product. But it was lacking in so many areas.
It's not all doom and gloom though, I think the IFE is amazing. The tail cam is a nice addition and the general feel of the product is great. It looks and feels nice.
Maybe I've been tainted by the hundreds of hours I've spent on the 787/333.
I'd be interested to know what others think.
Mumbles & Grumbles end.

- The loft sucks, bring back the bar.
- Tray table is probably too tightly packed up against your stomach and has no ability to move forwards/backwards like the 787 table.
- Seat feels quite tight and confined overall.
- It can be hard to get out of the seat into the aisle if you're reclined. You kind of have to reset the seat to be able to swing your legs out.
- Big lack of storage.
- Easy to accidentally press the buttons that control the seat.

Fly's a little too much.
