මගීන් 318 ක් කිව්වම මම හිතුවෙත් තට්ටු 2කේ ප්ලේන් එකක් කියලා.

No.. Probably it landed in KIA only now. It's a Dreamliner. Personally I like the Dreamliner better, compared with the Airbus.

I have heard that Airbus aircrafts are more spacious than Boeings. Is that true?

that probably depends on the seat configuration by the airline than the airplane

A380's are bigger, but the legroom you get finally depends on the Airline's configuration specs - not the Aircraft itself. But I feel the Dreamliner is more comfortable in long flights having its cabin pressure higher than the 380, better humidity controls and quieter (probably depends again on which engines are fitted)... The Dreamliner has electronically dimmable seat windows.

those wings in 787s that bend freak me out
I don't travel often enough to feel a difference between boeing and airbus though

That's the design & quite normal. It's flex... Carbon Fibre, provides more stability and less effects due to turbulence.

yeah, I know. but it still freaks me out. lol
I got no other way to travel back to arshiklands without flying in a 787 though. all major carriers use 787s for mid-long distances.

Why is this news in Sri Lanka where a 787 is coming? In other countries these are not news.. I personally prefer airbus better than Boeing.. Boeing is corrupt.. the 737 max story eka cover karanna etc..

All big Industries have their part in corrupt deals. Don't you remember Airbus was fined several Billions and ended up in paying 15.9 Million Euros to settle the French Corruption Probe.
PS: That's not to excuse Boeing's attitude with the 737Max. Totally wrong.
