Good to know that you folks are interested in input, as I agree with infamousdx that your main competitor has gone downhill. OTOH, you should do some basic prep work and homework of your own in connection with asking for information:

1. Put a link in your first post for FTers to most easily access your home page.
2. Much more importantly, put a prominent link in your home page and all of your other pages for users to offer corrections and additions to the information you have.
3. More work intensive, but still worthwhile, would be for junior personnel to peruse the many useful FT threads that discuss good and bad seats. Plug in that info to your site.
4. Go to the sites of many airlines to get basic info on seat pitch, width, etc.
5. Correct what should be obvious glitches in the info you currently have.

Re points 3-5: I just checked your site re the CX 777ER 4-class, and found that the pitch and width for all of the seats are "unknown." Come on, that info is easily accessed and plugged into your site. Also, for seat 1A in F you note that the seat is a bulkhead and that the one in front of it doesn't recline. Those descriptions are irrelevant and even misleading for any of the newer and better international F cabins.

I suspect that the better you make the site to start with, the more people will go there and provide the valuable, nuanced info you seek. Good luck!
