The Airbus A350 is among the industry's most modern twin-engined widebody airliners. Known for its composite design, Airbus first proposed the airframe in 2004 as a major competitor of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner program. The A330 was essentially the foundation for early concepts of the aircraft, but as time evolved and Airbus received feedback from the industry, it developed a new, cleansheet design, marketing the plane as “XWB,” which stands for extra widebody. The aircraft would also receive its own exclusive engine - the Rolls-Royce Trent XWB.
In today’s video, we look at some basic history of the aircraft, and offer several reasons why the A350 is as popular as it is. Some reasons will be rather obvious and could apply to any aircraft of its size, while other reasons may be less well known.

Former Boeing fan here. I travelled to Cape Town on an Ethiopian 787 and returned through Addis on an A350, both in economy. The A350 seemed quieter, roomier and just more comfortable than my former favourite 787. That same month I travelled on a Swiss A220 and it thrashes Boeing 737 again in terms of comfort and quietness. So for me it’s A220 short to medium and A350 long haul. I’ve made more flights since and continue to hold that view so select carriers on that basis. Go Airbus. Greetings from 🇨🇦

The recent accident where a JAL landed on top of a Japanese Coast Guard plane and caught fire because of the damage was very revealing. All passengers were safely evacuated including one old lady who was only evacuated 18 minutes later. The carbon composite A350 burned out so slowly compared to an aluminium plane.

I flew the Airbus A350-900 XWB with Singapore Airlines (SQ) from Manchester (MAN) to Singapore (SIN) on Christmas 2022 as flight 51 and with Finnair (AY) between Hong Kong (HKG) and Helsinki (HEL) at the second half of 2023 as flights 100 and 99. I also flew the Airbus A350-1000 XWB with Cathay Pacific (CX) from Hong Kong (HKG) to Seoul Incheon (ICN) as flight 434 and from Hong Kong (HKG) to Zurich (ZRH) as flight 383 at Easter 2023. I found the cabin of this aircraft futuristic with comfortable seats and larger overhead compartments. In the near future, I will fly on the A350-900 with Lufthansa (LH) between Hong Kong (HKG) and Munich (MUC) as flights 731 and 730 and Cathay Pacific (CX) between Hong Kong (HKG) and Manchester (MAN) as flights 259 and 216, as well as the A350-900 or A350-1000 with STARLUX Airlines (JX) between Taipei (TPE) and Toronto (YYZ) and the A350-1000 with Cathay Pacific (CX) between Hong Kong (HKG) and Toronto (YYZ) as flights 826 or 828, and 825 or 829, in which on STARLUX's A350, I'll try out the aircraft's dimmable windows.

I’ve taken the 787 and A350 on the same route (Singapore to Bangkok), using the same airline (Singapore) in a similar seat (business class using SQ points as part of a SFO-SIN-BKK, with a week’s stay in Sing as a stopover). It was a 350-900 vs a 787-10. I felt the A350, even being a little smaller, was more comfortable and a tad quieter. It also seemed that the finishes on the 350 were better, as the 787 rattled a little more. Both are great planes, but solely based on comfort, I prefer the 350.

I flew Qatar (Q-Suites) few years ago, one leg on the A350, the other on B777. I can tell you that there is a difference in comfort. The A350 is way more quite. I especially find the cabin ventilation system on the 777 to be outdated and noisy. My experience is in the front of the aircraft, where the engine noise is not that big of a factor.

Hey! Great video, but sharing a bit of well-meant feedback with a few examples on what I expected just from the title: As an industry-deep-dive format I would have expected a bit more reasoning on why specifically the A350 wins over other types, making it more a comparison than just listing its features. E.g. Wider cabin -> Airlines could put more seats in than 787, but why does it then win against the 777? What are the operating costs per seatkm vs other types - which ultimately is the main decision factor for standard routes. For which airlines specifically does it make more sense to buy this type (range, performance, cargo capacity) than others and how much of the market is it? Similarly, is it really true that compared to other types passengers or pilots prefer it? What does the competition offer instead? This video is a great overview on the features of the craft, but it imo has not answered WHY it is chosen OVER other crafts.

Simply Flying: The A350 is not the first aircraft of Airbus made of CFRP. Airbus has a long history of using carbon fiber. It started with the A310 to the A320 the A340-500/600 had much higher CFRP content, the A380 has over 30 tons of CFRP (first monolithic CFRP wingbox of any airliner, the tail fuselage is also monolithic CFRP) The A400M had the biggest CFRP wing ever made until the EIS of the 787.

For Airlines its range and economics for the A350 and for customers its comfort and quietness. so all round its a better aircraft. It will even challenge the up and coming 777x. In that the A350-1000 carries less passengers but has a greater range and costs 76million less. With the present Boeing management, its safer as well. Airbus could challenge the 777x even further by building a a350-1000 Neo with the new RR Ultra engines.

I’m a proud American , and I love flying on airbus products! Always feels newer, more modern, and far more comfortable than any of the Boeing, including the 787. One example is the window placement of Airbus products, larger, and higher up on the fuselage. Unless you’re a midget, looking at a Boeing 737 window means scrunching your neck, which is not good for anybody. I hate to say it, Boeing has lost its touch.

@@mrmarecki1 Correct. And in a few years when technology advances allow, Airbus can print the carbon fibre fuselage of the A330 without the cost of a whole new airplane - the engines, wings and some systems are new on the A330neo - making it lighter than possibly even the 787, but with longer range and similar operating economics. That would lead to huge profits as the replacement cycle of the A330ceo will be in full swing from 2030 onwards.

A330CEO seized a sizable share of market thanks to 787's delay. Also Airbus and Boeing don't usually overlap exactly with each other. A lower cost A330NEO at the lower end combined with A350 at the higher end is not a bad stragegy, especially when considered A330NEO is actually very close to 787 on midhaul. With minimal investment breakeven is not that far off despite the low volume, and chances are A330NEO may still be more successful program financially, just because Boeing spent too much on 787.
@KlausErmecke
@KlausErmecke 19 сағат бұрын
It is complex and was rather dynamic. Airbus had initially downplayed the announcement of the 787 that had been positioned by Boeing as a superior A330 replacement. Later, they (Airbus) came up with the original A350 concept, being basicly an A330 with new composite wings and new engines (an outline roughly similar to the later 777X), and in TWO sizes (called "-800" and "-900"), resembling the former A330-200 and -300 variants and an 8-abreast seating scheme. So Airbus clearly targeted the "A330 market" and the new contender 787. But then some highly influential costomers stepped up and publicly shunned the Airbus approach for its lack of vision. Airbus could not but revoke their original concept and come up with a new clean sheet design that they called "A350 XWB". But this new version resulted in a total shift in positioning: There were again two versions called "-800" and "-900", but now both fuselages were wider than that of the 787 and clearly wider than that of the A330 and accordingly provided for 9-abreast seating, and that much more comfortable than in the Boeing competitor. But there was one more property: The new -900 version was to be three meters longer than before, and equally three meters longer than the once successful but then already aging 777-200/ER. This means that the new -900 was now targeting the 777-200/ER (and also the A340!) replacement market. Additionally, Airbus announced an even larger variant, the -1000, that matched the capacity of the 777-300(ER), and offered much more range. Only the proposed -800 version was still targeting the A330/787 segment. The repositioning of the new A350 higher up soon became apparent as a possible strategic masterpiece. But then the -800 more and more became a LIABILITY! Airbus had initially promised to build the (original) -900 first AND THEN the smaller -800. Accordingly the newly added -1000 variant would come last. This means that the design process of the small bird with its much lower profit margin would delay the possible delivery of the high value 777 antagonist and A340-600 successor by maybe (my guess) two years. It was therefore IN THE INTEREST OF AIRBUS to start negotiations with the few existing customers of the -800 to have them switch to other models (preferably to the -900) - drop the -800 and advance the development of the -1000. And this is where the decision comes into play to "neoize" the A330. With the new plan to primarily position the new composed A350 ("XWB") line against the full 777 model set-up, the question for the A330 successor was again open. And Airbus decided for a major upgrade of the existing line rather than another clean sheet product. By adding new engines, a much improved wing and other sophisticated new features Airbus hoped to make it sufficiently attractive to keep at least a part of their numerous A330ceo customers. Furthermore they could force Boeing into discount battles and slash the profit margins of the 787. So the A330neo must be assessed as one element in the larger widebody strategy of Airbus. Airbus has so far sold over 1600 A350+A330neo jets, and the number will jump up in Farnborough and even more so through the rest of this year. Existing customers of both product lines are happy (seemingly now even Qatar!). Customers of Boeing are not.

One reason for the A350 popularity was ignored in this video. It's not a Boeing!

What is this an infomercial for SCAREBUS .. honestly.. to all the fanboys and you guys at simple,, the A350 is a skin on frame design. Were as the 787 entire fuselage is a single woven piece that is inherently stronger. And before you balk F1 uses this concept. Also the noise issues are really irrelevant because most humans cant really discern a 3 to 5 spread in decibels. Yes i know because i worked a flight line and the NUMBER of engines and its design determines noise . And lastly.. researchers have discovered that dehydration at altitude coupled with the human body's desire to remain in a balanced state by making thousands of micro muscular adjustments is the real cause of jet lag. So drink plenty of water especially on flights over 3 hours and dont consume alcohol or caffeine before or during the flight.

The 787 doesn't compete with the A350. Also the 787 came 4 years before the A350.

I always plan flights where I only fly Airbus airplanes no matter if I have to wait longer and no matter if it will cost a bit more. However, I will not fly on any A-350 with a 10 seat across arrangement. Until somebody from Boeing is sentenced to jail for the murder of 346 innocent passengers and crew, I refuse to set foot in any Boeing airplane.

I had the opportunity to fly the A350-900 from Singapore to Jakarta on an SQ flight where in the previous decade and a half, that used to be despatched by a 777-300 or 777-200. I can't say noticed a difference in terms of cabin comfort and refinement (probably down to the fact that I had a bumpy A380 14 hour flighht from LHR beforehand). Both accomodated 9 abreast very well for the short 1h 30 min hop. They're great for high density medium haul routes in the far east, similar to how its predecessor, the A300, pioneered the market.

I find the noise level very noticeably lower in the A350 and 787 vs 777 family, especially on connecting flights that mix these types. I'm a big 777 fan, especially love the powerful roar of the 300ER with GE900 engine, but I can always tell how much more I use noise cancelling headphones on them especially when seated in middle rows.
