Thanks for the TR, Carfield.

Are the J seats the same as NCW on the 747s?

J seats

J seats are the same NCW as in renovated Boeing 747-400 and Boeing 777-200ERs. Nothing really change here!

But World Traveler Plus features a new seat on Boeing 777-300ER.

The new BA First Class is the new CX Business Class? Looks like the same seat to me.

+1. With bells and whistles.

Scones with strawberries and clotted cream are to BA what satay is to SQ

Thanks for sharing Carfield

flying monkeyz - No BA first class seat is not the same as CX New Business Class - not evenly remotely closed. To give BA credit, the seat is not fancy like Emirates' suites or other airlines' enclosed first suites but it is still a first class seat that can go full flat and have more legroom than CX new business class. I just flew CX NBC a few weeks ago, so BA new First is still a proper first class seat with proper legroom. The seat is wider than CX when it goes flat and has more leg space.

Thanks for all your kind comments!

Carfield, awesome TR as usual!

How much better is CX F to BA F?

Very interesting TR as always, Carfield.
The new BA F does not look similar to CX new J in my opinion - BA F seems to have better legroom when in bed mode, and seems to have significantly better pitch.

That's the first thing that came to my mind too!
