Well put.

I was considering a segment on EK Y until I noticed they stuff 10 seats across on the 777... ouch

After reading jer's post I have first hand testimotial of what I suspected... EK Y is cramped. And on a long haul, for me it is all about the seat... All the IFE in the world or a meal worth $20 on the ground cannot take away my discomfort.
