I agree with you about the BE seat. When they first came out I thought they were great. Having since flown in the flat-bed seats I try to avoid them at all costs. That said, both my trans-Atlantic flights will be in the cradle seats, KL going over and DL (via CDG) coming back .
KLM has the WBC angled lie flat seats like on DL's A330s and the non reconfigured 747s, not the cradle seats like on the DL 767-300s that haven't yet been reconfigured.
