For comparison, AF has 772s with 49J/24W, 35J/24W, and 40J/24W (ignoring the COI config, and P seating). VS doesn't operate the 772, but their 789 is 31J/35W and their A346 is 45J/38W. Other carriers follow similar patterns.

Of course 28J means your GUCs won't clear and today's ridiculous J award pricing will seems cheap.
Somewhat comparable to Air New Zealand's 772s at 26/40/246, though (hopefully!) without the terrible 3-4-3 Y class. Is this for all the 777s, or just Delta's LRs? A large PE cabin could be a good offering on long TPACs.
