If so that would be the biggest seatwidth in an economy-class seat that I ever had heard about !

That would indeed be impressive if true. I am skeptical, however; how on earth can LH squeeze 20" seats into a 3-4-3 config in an airframe that I thought was substantially equivalent to the 744 as far as cabin width goes.

What is less impressive is the quoted width of the J seats - ranging from 19 and change to 26 inches wide. That's quite a range, and would certainly mean a significant range in the J experience.

That said, LH J upstairs would be a nice change...
