Comparison between 3 x Hong Kong to Melbourne flights over the past 24 hours - 1 in an A350, 1 in a 777, and 1 in an A330:
A350: Flt time 8:25. Trip fuel 51.4T
777: Flt time 8:35. Trip fuel 67.7T
A330: Flt time 9:01. Trip fuel 55.2T
There have been disgraceful cabin quality issues with the A350, but it's performance has been outstanding.
