Best F Option BKK-Europe-US

I'm weighing options trying to balance comfort (new F seats) and ease of transfer to a *A flight to the US once arriving in Europe. There will be 2 of us traveling next Spring.

Options are BKK-MAD, BKK-FCO, BKK-CDG, BKK-MXP. Curious which flight others would choose:
  • Madrid gives me the best flight to the US from Europe upon arrival. From reading here it sounds like the risk of substitution to 747 with the old F has gone down. FWIW its showing as a 747 with new F right now.
  • Rome sounds like it is mixed between old and new F, but not sure how transfer would be. Looks like new F right now.
  • Paris sounds like a transfer nightmare, but has the suites on the 777. How would this be for 2 people traveling together?
  • Milan - Looks like new F, and I'm unsure of how the transfer would be.

I'm regretting not booking the LHR flight a couple weeks ago, from my experience LHR is easy to transfer.
