Nothing positive about that, their J class is not competitive & once the rollout of new J starts plus the differences posted above, it will be a lottery for a long time to come

Still it's marginally better than Air France where on some routes you have the same chance of ending up in the newest J suite as the NEV4 angled retro seat

Any advantage in choosing one of these over the other for a EWR-FRA/MUC in terms of service or experience? Sounds like the hard product is the same.

EWR-FRA 747 6:10PM-730AM
EWR-MUC. 340 8:30PM-10:20AM

Some people find the upper deck experience on a 747 to be special (I was quite indifferent personally).

Yeah, it doesn’t sound all that inspiring. I’d be changing from UA economy seats though. Point difference is about 40k.

Indeed. I haven’t flown international since precovid so will appreciate the benefits of J, even if LH.

Hey all,

Forgive me if this is an often asked question, but in J on the regular configured 359s, are the bulkhead footwells the same size on seats 1D/G as 7D/G? Thanks!
