ANA IOJ product has the same aount of legroom compare to UA E+, the difference is the seat, NH IOJ product use non-reclining fixed back Y seat, some like it because no one in front of you will recline into your space, others don't because when you in the recline mode, your seat will slide forward and you are going to lose 2+ inches of legroom, not to mention most people still prefer traditional reclining, not the seat slide forward.
You don't get any special treatment in NH Y as UA 100K, all NH will know you are UA*G thats it. So be it you are UA 100K, 1K, premier platinum, premier gold, they are all the same to NH, know you as UA*G. Your UA 100K status only be known and recognize by UA's system and nowhere else.

9/23: 1A/G, 2D/G/K open.
9/25: hmm, interesting. I can't pull up the F seatmap ("PRS NOT ALLOWED THIS CLASS OR ZONE"). C seems to be staggered.

Hello. I'm new to flyertalk, but have lurked here a bit.
I'm thinking of booking an award ticket for business class in April or May 2014 for IAD-NRT. Right now those months are showing 777 only for that route, though March shows almost entirely 77W. Is that accurate or am I looking too far out for the plane to have changed? I don't want to use the points on the old config, but space is filling up so I need to decide soon.
