I heard a report today on NPR from someone that has flown in one of these new commercial airplanes from Boeing. Apparently, the windows are larger and they don't have blinds. Instead, if you are interested in dimming the window, you simply push a button and select the setting you desire. Also, there is increased baggage space and the ceiling is higher which creates the feeling of spaciousness. The bathrooms have windows and are more spacious too.
As someone that fly's often, I look forward to being on one.
Bigger windows would be nice. That video spent too much time looking at the ceiling, IMO. I recently heard that some new planes would have a higher cabin pressure, which could allow for a higher humidity. Supposedly some jet lag has to do with the dry air. I'm not sure about that, but the dry air does get to be a bother.
A window in the bathroom is fun.

I agree, too much ceiling time. I'm looking forward to checking one out though. I'm afraid they didn't do much to address the real problems with modern flight. -Uncomfortable seating and horrendous customer service. Customer service isn't Boeings responsibility but more leg room is!
