Any thoughts about the comparison? Seems like there's a few different seat types on 777-200's and I'm having trouble finding which one this is.
I would be going BOI-PHX-LAX-AKL or BOI-DFW-AKL at the very end of the year.
Thanks!
All longhaul international business class is "Flagship"; The LAX-AKL flight will be "Flagship" regardless of which 772 config you get, which you won't know until 24-48 hrs before departure.

All else being equal I would go DFW given those choices. One less connection and the DFW-AKL flight on the 789 will for sure have one of AA's best business cabins with no risk of getting a forward/backward 772.
