My seat map shows 28 business class seats and 32 premium economy. Am I mistaken that I will be on a place with new seats?

Alternatively, I may be able to rebook in J on an AF 777-300 (the version with the 4 first class seats). Would this be a newer cabin or old as well?

If I can't get on the a350, I'm looking for the best possible 777 I can get on with AF.
772 refits haven't started, and may not actually be to the new seat with doors. One of the two 772 configurations out there is 28J.

77Ws with La Premiere will eventually get new J (likely starting later this year), though for 2024 it's unlikely that a majority of them will be refit. Rebooking to one of those flights virtually guarantees getting 1-2-1 reverse herringbone without doors ("BEST").
