Well, of course. Will ANYONE that is not engaged that day in actual, ongoing invasive surgery miss it?
Lots of people don't believe in it. Here's a chance to see a Dreamliner with your own eyes!!

Tell you what I was in Delhi airport on I think it was 12th July of last year and the Dreamliner was on I think its world tour for first time (correct me if wrong)
It came in to Water cannon from both sides.......I've never seen so many people on an apron after it pulled up.
The Indians were all over it like a rash........no security nothing !!

They have designed new seats for the aircraft as well both business and economy classes. Business ones look the real deal.

Yes but Manchester > Bangkok always seems to involve a long wait in Doha !

Well it can be 2.5 and 1.5 hours but you have to pay more for that in economy.Yes but Manchester > Bangkok always seems to involve a long wait in Doha !
For cheapest read 13+ hours in Doha one way, which is asinine and shouldn't even be offered.
The price difference for a check I did for short transits was 5000 baht more...£100. I would pay it!

On the link provided the economy seat piccie shows an executive watching the screen, but the seat in front is upright, his is reclined and there doesn't seem that much room. Supposed to be 32" with 16.9" width, may try them if I can afford business class.

16.9" width is small...
If you're unfortunate to be sat beside a fat bugger his blubber is going to be invading your seat.
