That backs up my impression after sitting in the 2 rows of working 747 x C seats they had set up there at the Sydney UA big-deal launch tonight.
Only UA could spend mega, mega, millions keeping up with the Joneses, (far too late) and
decrease seat width by near 10%.
Especially as they are marketed as a "bed". Be the narrowest "bed" in the skies is my guess.
Well we were stuck with them for another decade or so, the history books tell us.
How could anynoe have signed up for a new age 'C' seat that narrow? How do other airlines get them wider?
Sat in the new F seat suite and yes, you really get the impression that has some serious extra space over current ones. ^
