Well I wouldn't turn down EC if I got it for free. I think it is hard to justify paying $40 each way for a transcon or $70-160 each way for intercon. The 2 degree increase in recline is hardly noticeable. The legroom might be where EC can be worth it if you are a giant.

In the link above, it states that seat width in EC is 18.5", while in regular Y it is only 17.2". Is this correct? 17.2" seems very narrow in a 9 abreast 777, while AF is 17" on their 10 abreast 777s. Heck, KL and EK are both 17.5" in width on their 10 abreast 777s.

Blocked seats
If a crew member is at one airport and needs to get to another airport where their plane is set to depart from they keep the seats blocked in case this happens and if there is no crew who needs to transfer airports they will then release the seats if you ask at the gate. I know a pilot who was based in NYC but family home was in Chicago and he would fly to NYC To start work and told me that's why some airlines block some seats and then can only unblock them at gate when they are sure they are not being used.

I have a flight coming up DTW to ICN.
Options are EC Window or EC Middle in the Bulkhead.
I've done this flight in J (great!!) and in EC Bulkhead Aisle, but those options aren't available to me. I'd appreciate any advice from fellow FT ers.
