Guess what? None of the passengers on the 10 abreast Y class seating knew any better so it made no difference to them and that's how it is played!
Smart airlines are moving towards 10 abreast seating on the 777s.
I got off from Haneda - Hong Kong CX flight and it was 10 abreast and it was a great experience once again - sorry for busting your bubbles to those that were naysayers.
CX has done a great job with its 10 abreast seating with IFE, seat comfort and the slim seats that gives you a great sense of space.
I must admit that CX IFE on the refitted aircraft are better than what SQ has with their new aircraft. SQ is no longer a major competitor in the YCL space. They have lost the lust in this segment for sure and from my experience.
