Agree with the above sentiments - looks amazing with what we can see at the moment. Can't wait till Sunday!

Yeah just saw it on the website now , looks great ! I feel a early christmas present for myself coming on :D

Exciting. I am very much looking forward to experiencing it in flight! Unfortunately, I'll have to make do with the current (or is it now 'old'?) suites on my next three flights :eek: First world problem though that can easily be washed down with a Paradis :D

Amazing to see what has become of EK's F hard product - I still remember the sleeperettes (yes, in F!) and how exited people were (me included) when the Skycruiser seat was launched. But this really takes it to a whole new level!

Hehe , can not wait until the bombardment of threads asking if their plane will have the new F seats or not ?

Yeah, the BA lot will be slagging it off, saying how the the 14 seats crammed into the nose of a 25 year old 747 are far more refined :)

Of course it is - if there’s any hint of gold or wood veneer then it’s automatically gauche and unrefined and objectively inferior and I would never have the bad taste to be seen in such horrid surroundings. Absolutely disgusting

The new seat/suite looks incredible.
Can't wait till Nov 12 !!

I think it was mentioned before but I can't remember. Are there plans to update the A380's with these new F seats? Or is it going to be on new delivery 777's only?

At the moment just the 777...

As much as I am looking forward to seeing/traveling in the new F, I would love to see if they have done some changes with the toilet. Maybe just 1 large toilet, and 1 smaller one, if possible.

Must say they are doing quite a good job showing tempting images without revealing anything. :rolleyes:. It will be nice to see the 'full show' on Sunday.

Based on previous experiences, it seems unlikely that there is going to be a major retrofit of the entire 777 fleet (think the new J cabin), so I am not holding my breath waiting to get into this new suite.
Plus I would think that mileage awards / upgrades are ging to be (more) difficult to get (25% capacity reduction).

Don't want to spoil the party...... :o

Surely EK has put a shower in their new 777 F, right? Having the two showers in the A380 is one of the things that sets the product apart and makes it a pleasure to fly.
