You wont get that on any DL plane or the KE 777.

Also, even though the KE A380 is 2-2-2, there's tons of room. Plus, you get a flatbed and unlike Delta's J 767 seats, there is ample leg room with no 'coffin' like affect.
I have had flights on the KE 380, as I mentioned, so I'm well aware of the seating/layout. I just don't find the service as good as on the 777. I try not to fly DL on this route, if I can avoid it.

Not a big fan of the DL767. I know at one point 6-8 years ago they had crappy seats, with 18.5" widths. I had 4 RT Jumbos booked, and after flying it once, I canceled the rest of my tickets.
