The width will feel somewhat restructed and box-like to some. The fit and fit reminded me of a Yugo.

I hereby dub these "NGBB" - Next Generation Business Box. To think AA required modifications from Zodiac and this was the result makes me think the proper word is "chiseled" the OEM product down to this.

I apologize for the poor 90 degree "squashed" rendering of the seat - it's FlyerTalk.
Thanks for your review!

Am I correct to assume that 77D = 772 in this thread?
AA lists the plane as "Aircraft: 772" and I've read people mention 77D and 772 in the thread.
I still don't follow what the difference between 777-223ER that is listed in the wiki vs 777-200 listed on AA's retrofit website.

I am flying JFK-CDG and my SWU just went through!!!
This is my current available seat map:


I am traveling with my significant other and currently have 7D and 7H due to reading here:
1. Seats are not connect to other seats
2. Based on JDriver's review the divider should be down

Are my assumptions above correct?

I also read that sitting across the aisle 7L, 7H would be good for a couple, but it seems weird to me to talk across the aisle.
IF I am lucky and the divider is down, would it be better to stick where I am?

Side question: It's my first AA International J flight and I'm wondering what perks I have. I am also AA EXP. I read I can access the Flagship lounge at JFK. Is there a lounge I can try when I land at CDG?
