Getting my flights for the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
On my flight over (nonstop) I will be aboard a 787 Woo Hoo!
The flight back though I have two choices
1. Heathrow to Amsterdam(737) then to LAX (747)
2. Heathrow to Charles De Gaulle (A321) the to LAX (A380)
Neither of which I have been on before and I can’t decide which to choose.
I am leaning 747, but I want Oppo’s opinion
UPDATE:
Flight home is via CDG and Airbus

The 747 is cool, but KLM’s 747 are old and tired. Book the Air France flight.

The A380 is a significantly better jet than the 744
You could also book Aeromexico’s 788 on LAX- Mexico City and then directly to Heathrow on a 789

ONE EXCEPTION: If you can fly in the upper deck, book with KLM.

Note that production is ending for both the 747 and the A380.
But t here are only half as many Airbus A380s in use compared to the 747.
So go with option 2.

If it is a 747-400 I would say take that because they won’t be around in passenger service much longer, the 747-8 and A380 will still be around for at least another 10-15 years

You’ve already made your decision, so it doesn’t matter, but I will say that my family had a family friend who was a retired VP at Boeing. He would not fly Boeing under any circumstances.
I fly whatever, but that does always influence me if there’s a choice.

Well, LAX to CDG must be 14 hrs, and CDG LHW must take an hour or so, I don’t think you’d be crazy to take the route

I’d probably choose the 747, but only because those are disappearing from passenger service faster.
