Also am not a fan of the seatbelt on the chaise, which at least for me, was very difficult to click in easily, as one end is buried in the seat. I needed my phone flashlight more than once on this
I understand the elegance of the new LP.
I am very sensitive to noise even with special ear plugs. Sleeping with the head against the galley is a no-no to me.
A good friend just flew CDG-HND on the new JL A351 (they currently alternate 773 and 351). The colour is a bit ugly, so bad grade on elegance. But he showed me pictures and I looked on internet. It is 1x1x1 front facing. Seems like a great seat.
