Travel writer waxes lyrical over new Boeing 787 Dreamliner

The hi-tech new Boeing 787 Dreamliner could “change the way we holiday for ever”, according to one travel writer granted a rare peek at the new plane.Writing for the Daily Mail, Jonathan Margolis said that within two years, we could all be jetting off on our holidays on the new craft, which is packed with amazing tech features and is designed to make even long-haul travel truly comfortable.

And those who usually have to fly economy class when taking cheap flights to Australia or other long-haul destinations could enjoy space which makes it feel though they are in business class, he praised.

According to the source, the economy seats on the Dreamliner are bigger and boast more legroom than on any current passenger craft. Aisles are wider and windows are bigger too, giving the whole interior a much improved sense of space.

And in news which may interest those taking cheap flights to Australia, the new planes even boast cutting-edge lighting technology aimed at reducing jetlag when flying long distances.

The first Dreamliners are set to be put into commercial use in 2012.
