Perhaps this is why RA mentioned the ability to cancel the current 787 order during the last earnings call. The 787 delays probably allowed Delta to defer the order along with removing commitment to take delivery.

One interesting thing to note about the A350 is direct access to the pilot rest area divided off from the PAX.

"The rest area for flight crews is located immediately aft of the cockpit. Its staircase access is separated from the passenger cabin by a secure door, which creates a quiet and protected zone including a dedicated floor-level lavatory for pilots. The overhead rest area has two bunk beds, along with a seated work station. For cabin crew, a rest facility in the A350 XWB’s rear fuselage accommodates up to eight bunks. It includes a full-height standing area, providing a comfortable zone that allows crews to prepare and dress more easily."



Here's the original design that was located below the cockpit.
