There are 3 major ways of spotting the difference when watching them closeby. Below are few differences between these two giants aircraft birds

Firstly, the Boeing aircraft has a pointy noise, while Airbus crafts have round bulbous nose.

Secondly, the cockpit windows of Boeing family are diagonal while that of Airbus are more of a square.
