Hot Dog, no mate it's the bean counters that don't share my opinion.
The "customers" like Crew, Engineers and Pax don't much like
them either.
The Bean counters love them because they are cheap in the short term.
You can buy 3 A330's for 2 777's. That is why Airbus sold as many as they have.
Ask anyone at QF how much they paid for the A330's,they will tell you Airbus basically gave them away at a huge loss just to secure the A380 sale and have more of their jets downunder.
I've been a professional in this industry for 20+ years, I see what goes on. My time in Asia ain't been wasted.
cheers
