Which is more comfortable B787 or A350?

It depends if you are flying first class, business, or economy. Assuming you're talking about economy, then the A350 wins by far, in my opinion. Because the layout of the B787 is 3–3–3, the seats are narrower than average; most seats are only 17.5 inches wide. The Airbus A350, however, boasts wider seats.
