Interesting comments from the Boeing guy regarding it will be pressurised to a higher level than "normal" to give more passenger comfort.

But I wonder how the "plastic" fuselage will take to being hit by baggage and catering trucks? AND how long it will take to repair!
It's stronger than aluminium.

There is also no way in which contaminants in engine bleed air can affect the passengers either.
