(In business, the 788 is equipped with Zodiac "Concept D" Business Suite, and the 787-9 will be equipped with the B/E Aerospace "Super Diamond" seat (as indicated in the wikipost). Significantly different product, shouldn't be comparable with the induced motion problems in the Zodiac seat.)

We will probably have to wait for some reports.

That was an erroneous comparison-- the UA seat is entirely different. It was the 789 J-seat on AC that one can look to.
Just so we're clear, we were talking about bulkhead Y seats (obviously J is entirely different and not comparable.) Will Y be that different on the 789 compared to the 788?
