Actually, I am not trying to convince anyone. Wasn't trying to and not sure how you got that impression that I was. I am just curious as to why so many people on this board have such a hate on for these seats, making it as if sitting in Y is akin to torture.
To me, while you can't compare Y to J, so many people on this board make it out to be inhumane. The impression I got after reading here was that the seat was so tight that you were unable to move. After experiencing the actual product, I don't see what why people say it's so bad.

I guess a majority of the members in this forum are FF's that travel for business.. and if you have to work during the day and hop into a Y seat to your destination, you get rather uncomfortable relative to a leisure traveller who is just excited to be on vacation. It's "inhumane" that they must be subject to such discomfort when they are often expected to work upon arrival, and flying in Y will make it difficult to get the rest you need for that.

Cramped 777 J Class
Just flew YYZ-MUC in a 777 with the updated reverse herringbone dreamliner style pod set up. Although at first, it seemed identical to the 787 but after flying, I really think it is quite cramped. The opening seems narrower and everything seems to be a little tighter. Has anyone observed the same?

Really depends on when your flight is. There is no guarantee if your 77W will have the new J or not until it has taken off, which makes the 788 a better choice (until the reconfiguration is done sometime in May). That being said, there have been a lot of substitutions recently for 788 flights, so it really is up in the air.

Edit: Officially, nothing is guaranteed. But practically, swapping a flight where PE was sold to a non-PE aircraft is expensive for AC so they do all they can not to do that.
