Old Y+ is only slightly better than Y and old Y+ is what you get on the B747s.
I strongly disagree! I just paid ~$290 to upgrade from Y>WT+ just for LHR-JNB on 747 aircraft. Your $208 extra is a bargain!
On most BA 747s now, i.e. those with 70 CW seats, there are zero decent seats with any legroom in economy. WT+ is a huge improvement and well worth the $208.
