3. In Club (and I'd probably be in Club as the flight is too short to enjoy F service on an overnight) I'd choose a 747 on the upper deck, in F I'd choose a 777. Not done AA business class yet somehow, but that has its own advantages and disadvantages. 747 UD if you pushed me.
Thanks for this
The thought of getting up particularly early to catch a flight where I'd be more likely to get F certainly doesn't particularly appeal so I think that part is decided
I do have a soft spot for the B747s so it may be worth going for that over the 777 on way back but with my lack of status I will be almost certain to miss out on an UD seat
