'Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.' – Arthur C. Clarke

I'm happy to report back that the new Boeing Dreamliner is the magic use of technology, at least to a non-engineer/non-pilot like me. We flew to and from our holiday on it and it's better than other airplanes. Aside from less ear-popping during accent and descent, it was mildly quieter. Most significantly, unlike flights in the past, I didn't get nauseous and headachy during or after the flight. On the first few days of our trip I didn't get a migraine as I have on other trips. After coming home, I did get a migraine but probably mostly from the lack of sleep because of the discount airline's economy class seats. I would buy one if I could.
