I have yet to fly on a French plane that could maintain the cabin temperature at a comfortable level. Luckily though, no tail assemblies fell off from any of those planes.

I've flown the A330 and the A380.The 330 was distinctly unimpressive.The A380 was certain big...and OK,nothing more.

I'll take the 777 and the 747...although I've never flown the 787.

Relative to passenger comfort on all of this is determined by seat spacing. A huge airliner can be great or it can be hell if they use the "sardine seat spacing." My best flights were on a 777s without the sardine pack seat spacing. Showing my age now, but my favorite of all was the old Lockhead L1011 Tristar. It actually had superior aerodynamics than the 747 and DC-10 but the former had already captured the market ahead of the Tristar. It was a lovely aircraft. When it flew nobody used the "sardine pack" seating.
