I have to say for sleeping, I prefer the new Polaris seat.

Being 6’1, if I pick the right seat in the cabin I can get a foot cubby deep and wide enough that my feet don’t touch the end even when sleeping (unlike on NZ where I really have to be strategic with pillow placement against the wall otherwise my feet are shoved tight in the ottoman)

What does prevent me from flying United to AKL however is the poor service and bad flight timings (a 3pm departure from AKL won’t work for sleep)

For those who really find the NZ seat comfortable, how tall are you?
