Since almost every airline has incorporated or will incorporate PE on their fleets will KE follow suit anytime soon? Or, possibly they have already installed PE on some of their aircraft as I haven't flown in a couple of years. Also, KE flies B777-300R aircraft out of Atlanta and some of the other US airports. Do they fly Version 1 or 2 as described on Seat Guru?

There is no PE on KE now on any aircraft. Given the large size of the J cabins on KE, doubt that they will launch a PE product any time soon as that will jeopardize many of their corporate contracts.

They fly the updated biz cabin 7773ER seats nowadays. The "non-updated" seats are typically on regional 777 flights.

And considering the very generous pitch in Y, I hope they don't introduce Y+ as that would likely mean a loss of at least 2 inches on every other seat...

They said they were going to before Corona but of course I'm guessing they have delayed that project a while with virtually no sales to support the cost
