For me, it'd be toss up between these seats and the WBC pods. And much better than the J seats on the AF 777 I flew last fall.
Delta should wait before it starts replacing the WBC seats on the 747 and other aircraft to make sure that it is a significant improvement over the WBC seat. I liked the privacy of the 77L pod, but I actually felt the WBC seat was overlall more comfortable for someone at 6'2". The 77L pod was cramped and painful compared to the WBC pod which had some sliding issues, but no cramping and pain. I will take no pain over privacy. Pain is pain. Privacy is in your mind, and I am quite introvert, but those 77ls can cause pain. The 77L in business class was also filthy. In business, why can't they add more padding on hard seats? Emirates was offering mattersses. Just make the darn seat more padded. Dah.
