Where did the extra cabin width of the 777 vs. A380 UD go? Did they just make the aisles extra wide?
I agree with you.
However, I think the 777 width is actually wider than the upper deck of the A380. The actual seats on the A380 are already too narrow (19.5 inches, which is barely larger than an economy seat).
I was very disappointed at this seat indeed; however, EK has an industry leading First Class and PE to compensate for this dated "new" 20-year old design seat.
