777: 6 inches
330: 4/5 inches

FWIW, 7M8 J is only 6 inches (less than PY on the wide bodies).

it’s generally an aircraft best avoided, regardless of class of service.

The vent issue probably reflects how tightly the Y rows are packed (30”, which is an LCC/ULCC spec). Maybe if AC buys the ULCC variant of the Max, that’ll have the right fan spacing for AC’s Y cabin.
Wow, 3 inches on the Max? Honestly, it felt even less than that.

The funny thing is that I think it was scheduled to be an A321, but got changed to a Max.

I'll have to keep the vent issue on my mind going forward. I wish I had known about this earlier and just worn a T-shirt instead.
