I assume new 777 > 787 > old 777, would anybody disagree? I would like the flat bed for the long flight, but I also haven't flown on a 787 yet. Any suggestions? I am starting in STL and ending in SGN. Going to BOS would be out of the way, but it would mean I don't have to get up super early, as I would fly to BOS the night before.

Thanks!
787-8 and old 777-300ER (W82 config) has the same NEO seats although those on 788 are a bit wider. ORD should get W83 (SS7) on alternate days by Feb.
