Depends which class you are in. The old economy seats are better IMHO because they don't have those awful sliding seats which mean you loose your legroom when you recline. With respect to business class, the A380/773 seats are the much vaunted "widest seats in the sky", but they really aren't that comfortable. I certainly wouldn't say that the 772 should be avoided. Actually I'd say the "new economy" should be avoided
