From the pictures, the MH angled-flat seats look about the same as the current AA and JL angled-flat J seats. Are MH any worse (or better) than JL or AA (assuming none are yet next-gen true-flat all-aisle-access)?

It'll be a while before the AA TPAC routes have one of the newer J seats. The 777-200 retrofit is supposed to start in 2014, so one would have to be very lucky to get a retrofitted 777. AA has ordered a lot of 777-300 (I think maybe 20) and so might decide to use one for one of the NRT routes, but so far that's just guessing.

How about JL, CX and RJ?
AA does not charge fuel surcharges for award flights on JL or CX.
