Also wanted to say thanks for the reviews of the Conrad and Cape Fahn, I had Anantara Rasananda booked but starting to waver.
The flight was completely full.
I will say the J seats appear to be around 20-30 years old. Mine was broken and stuck in full recline as others were. I didn't say anything as there was nowhere to move to, but on another international carrier it would be put out of service.
