Yes but I’ve sat in the supposed “connected” 788 seats and I never had any issues. Maybe I’m just lucky, I don’t know? My flights I’ve been on “connected” seats were LAX-HND-LAX, ORD-PVG-ORD, and twice from LAX-PEK-LAX . I would often sit in the middle traveling with someone, and I never had any issues with the seats moving.
The 787-9 seats are definitely better and seem roomier (at least to me) but the old seats have never been an issue for me for whatever reason.
