I booked round trip to boston/london on AA in business class. The flight was on a BA 777.

I book business on AA because I like the seat width. Alas the business class seats are very narrow. Lots of leg room, but no shoulder or hip room ( I think the width is 20 inches). The layout is 8 across alternating front back orientation. You can see a picture here http://www.airreview.com/BA/Fleet.htm under BA club world business class

When I booked I expected AA business class, which, in past flights , is identical to AA first class.. wide seats

Anyone else find these new seats uncomfortable.. Any tips on how to avoid them on the Bos/Lon trip, other than to avoid BA?
