I am looking at either this A350 or Suites for an upcoming flight LAX-ATL. Initially I was going to grab the Suites but I have my Mom with me and was thinking maybe the 2-2-2 would actually be nice and she would likely prefer to sit right next to me. It also eminates stepping over a stranger although these look so spacious that maybe that isnt even an issue.

I happen to think the DL Suites are very overrated as those Thompson seats Imo are horrible. I cant stand how there is no actual bench or footwell to rest your feet and you just dangle them on the ground basically. The way the seat just lowers but doesnt recline is so annoying too. Nvm the total lack of storage.

Anyways I have 2 questions about these LATAM seats:

1) Is there a foot rest so if one (my Mom) cant reach the ottoman she can have a place to rest her feet

2) Does the seat back actually do a proper recline like Polairs, AA 77W & most all seats out there or does it do the same just lower and slide up how the Suites do?

I am thinking of actually choosing this flight. Would mean not having to get up as crazy early to catch the morning Suites flight but would also mean traffic on the 405. But all that aside these seats look comfy actually.

Thank you.
