There might be a slim 10% chance UA will finally wake up and install cirrus (or better yet, the new J available on AC 787s or QR 350s)
Either way we slice it, there will be a significant loss of J seats on the routes currently flown by the 747s - with a 2x2x2 seat, the loss would be even greater and I say this as someone who despises the PMUA J seat.

I would certainly bemoan the loss of the upper deck J experience.
