KLM Y is pretty good most of the time, though food portions, while pretty okay, may be on the smaller side.
And while the 747 is a beauty, in Y I think it is the worst of the fleet (very old, especially the entertaimment systems, and no power or USB outlets). In J it is better than all except for the dreamliner.

Don't know how you get there. The seat is identical to the 777, but the IFE is way worse - it's awful! The lower deck is very spacious and has those 3 standalone seats, but the upperdeck is cramped and looks very old so evens out. 777 is at least as good if you ask me. Probably better due to the IFE.
