Only flown once on a Dreamliner, very pleasant, did it impact positively on jet lag? IMO didn’t really notice any difference.

Flown on the dreamliner with TUI and AA both are much better aircraft as you don't feel as crammed in and the lighting is a lot better! In terms of jetlag I didn't really notice a difference on both occasions!

I thought it helped a bit with jet lag but certainly we felt fresher, less grubby and could breath easier.

I agree, felt less grubby, the noise in the cabin was better and the lighting also helped. We found the Dreamliner really comfortable and can't remember Jet lag being too bad

Definitely felt that we didn't suffer with jet lag as much on the dreamliner

I flew on the Dreamliner and had the worst jet lag ever over a week to get over it. Last time on a 747 all be it in upper sleep over 5 hours coming home and no jet lag at all.

Have to agree that is how we have felt after flying the Dreamliner. I suffer badly with headaches on the Florida flights and I can honestly say I don't get them on there. I think the lighting helps.

Flown on the Dreamliner numerous times to Florida - we absolutely love it. We are 1 hour from Birmingham and half an hour from EMA, so it does help that we have a short drive back. The flight back seems so much quicker than when we fly into Manchester on VA and TC too. We are definitely less jetlagged, and the plane really is lovely.

We flew to Canada last year on an Air Canada one, right across to Calgary and I think we were over it quicker. This time we are with BA and not sure what they fly on that route as haven't checked yet!

I'm still puzzled as to why its called the Dreamliner. It was designed to be 2-4-2 seating in economy but most airlines have crammed in an extra seat by making 3-3-3.

Rant over!
