KE Business Class Quality
IS KE Business Class still rubbish? Need to go to NRT next week and going on KE via ICN is an option. Other option is on AA whose J class I am not a big fan of.

Any experiences/advise would be appreciated

You don't need to go via ICN on KE to NRT. They have a nonstop LAX-NRT flight... so fly from NY to LA, then change to KE nonstop to NRT.

Comparable to what? CO, NW, AA (which are very similar to me) in J or more like an ANA, MH?

Obviously KE's old one. the question was "is it still rubbish" and I have said that it is not. The OP dd NOT ask for comparisons other than AA, which IMHO it is better than.

Avoid KE 1/2 direct flights. Old seats! They break my back even in the F seat.

I flew KE on the ATL-ICN v.v. 2 months ago. The 744 had the new business class which is quite nice. Individual pods that lie flat, AVOD. The service has always been good for me on KE. The food has always been just OK.

Any experiences with KE 82 (JFK - ICN) and KE 85 (ICN - JFK) in C? New seats and AVOD?
