I know it is just marketing drivel, but at least they are saying new and unique.
I kind of remember JAL said a similar thing when A350-900 was introduced in domestic operation. I am expecting a similar thing for the international A350-1000. The cabin width of 777 is 19 ft. 3 in., and A350 is 18 ft. 5 in. JAL has their domestic A350-900 with 9 seats across in economy, eight seats across in Class-J, and six seats across for domestic First.

My guess is that international F onboard A350-1000 will be three seats across, whereas A350-1000 will have either 6 F seats or 3 F seats. It will be nice if PY on A350-1000 is going to be 7 seats across, but I do think 8 seats across on A350-1000 PY is a possibility. I am guessing that Y on A350-1000 will be similar to the domestic A350-900. I wonder what JAL is planning for C seats on A350-1000.

P.S. Looking at a seating chart of A350-900, I think another possibility for F in A350-1000 is two rows of window seats and one row on a center seat, with a total of 5 F seats on A350-1000.
