I come from the C-5 world...trust me this is way better. My experience so far (which is only 3 trips) says 99 times out of 100 the airplane works, you depart on time, catering is onboard, you have trans and a hotel room waiting for you when you step off the jet. I know some will chime in with exceptions but all in all, everything works WAY SMOOTHER than a C-5 trip. The best part is you don't have to go in to the office and fight the madness after you land from your 2 week trip. As a good friend of mine said, it's a lot like the C-5 life except for the crappy part.
