Recently flew EK F for the first time on JFK-MXP on their 77W. Have to say I was disappointed given all the hype of EK. I only rate the hard product as I don't normally eat a lot or watch any movies. Most important for me is the ability to sleep and work.

I did not like their seat that when flat comes right up to the sliding doors. To get up from the seat, I will need to open the sliding doors to swing my legs out. The whole suite felt very tight. I don't understand why they waste so much space on the side to store the drinks that aren't even cold when they could have made the seat wider or closer to the side than to the door.

SQ Suites is still the best in the air. I haven't tried EK A380 yet, but I assume the F design is similar? SQ 77W in F, I agree is a big gap to Suites but waiting to try the 2013 slight redesign. I was told SQ is considering re-configuring the 77W F layout to be better than the 2013 design and that is why the 2013 F design has been slow to roll-out pending their decision to re-configure 77W F.
