777 ER, 777 LR, or 747?
I am changing my current flight from Incheon to Orlando and depending on routing can fly either a 777-200 ER, 777-200 LR, or 747. Which plane has the better BE seats?

ICN - DTW is a non stop on a 777 ER, if you choose to take the non stop into the US. Otherwise I would rank them as the following.
777 LR (lie flat)
777 ER (old recliner style that I find comfortable)
747/330 (NWA WBC seats)
777 LR (lie flat)
777 ER (old recliner style that I find comfortable)
747/330 (NWA WBC seats)

777 LR Lie flat
747 WBC seats --flat but slanted --(especially upper deck !)
777 ER Horrible Laz-E-Boy style seats
Nothing is worse than those recliner style torture seats.

762 - 156 degree recliner on 55" pitch
764 - 156 degree recliner on 55" pitch
752 - 156 degree recliner on 55" pitch
777 - 170 degree recliner on 55" pitch
when Delta's 160 degree recliner on 60" is so unacceptable to you, as found in the 767-300ER and 777-200ER?

Your profile shows you're CO Plat. How do you handle the CO classic seats?
