Nevertheless, the EK site tends to have quite a few errors and takes forever to get updated when changes are made.

E.g. it is still showing

[my emphasis added]

whereas all 777s except the -300s have at least a 55" pitch in J as of now.

There was an old thread where someone measured the pitch and came back with 34" on the 773s but I can't find it - I will post if I do.

I think the general concenus is as follows:

Boeing Planes - 34"
Airbus Planes - 32" (I have heard 31" and 33" for the A340-500 but don't know which is correct. It didn't feel cramped so I think 31" is inaccurate)

Cheers
