It is very difficult to see how Boeing can compete on Sunrise with the 777 variants given all the current issues.
As much as anything, I think the effective air pressure might be better on the 350, as I felt more fresh after these flights than the 787. I was also conscious of the lower engine noise on the 350 compared to 330, whereas on 787 I did not notice it being significantly quieter than 777.

Personal choice ultimately, I expect.
