I just arrived in Dubai and had two segments on AF in Business. First was on a 340 and second was on the 380. Seats were nearly identical but I felt the 380 seats were a little narrower and had less room between them. Lighting on the 380 was nice, but the business cabin is way to big. Took close to 3 hours from take off to finally finish lunch and the cabin wasn't full. Plus the lavs for business are in the galley for business and it is hard to wait for a lav to be free when you have 8 flight attendants bustling around the same area. It was a different sound being up higher from the engines, but I was in the 2nd business cabin which is over the wing and still wanted to wear my noise cancelling headphones. I can now say I've ridden on the 380, but actually prefered the 340. Not sure what the business is like on the AF 777. I'm flying home on the Delta 777 direct to Atlanta with the layflats...looking forward to it.
