BTW, AA seats are a slight variation to the J seats that Air Canada has on their 788/789s that they started receiving in early 2014. These aircraft fly on the YYZ-TLV route.

Its actually more similar to the new UA 773 Polaris also made by Zodiac.

Seems like EL AL is one of the first airlines to introduce it. They are the Recaro CL 6710.
Very similar to Zodiac but without the delays AA and UA experienced .

Looks really good. Now the big question is which flights get them first, otherwise known as, How Long do I wait to experience this?

You can check - they are not selling First from those dates on those routes

I'm hoping they deploy on YYZ and BOS, and dump those cruddy ancient 763s.

Thanks

AND JFK is glaringly missing. By the time I get on the aircraft it will be old. I DO hope they are going to maintain the passenger cabin properly. All this nice business features are meaningless if they don't work. I'm tired of duct tape!

I checked the info and images at the LY website.
J seats look solid. On par with most legacy carriers, and looks like a big step forward.
W seats look solid - seems like the same seat as BA WTP, but with a bigger IFE screen.
Y - looks solid and on par with most legacy carriers.

The video itself is lame - how could they issue a promotional video in which the airport is clearly not TLV?

No info about Matmid changes with the introduction of W class.

Fellas, don't get too excited just yet:

1) Those videos are animations. Not the actual footage of the interior.
2) No arrival dates beyond that lonely first one, which means we'll be with the 744's for at least another year, likely longer.
