I have got to say, all of those seats look really comfortable, especially the economy ones. VS used the same pival technology on their new Y seats, right? Also, notice the "new" business seats/beds that happen to look quite like the UCS.

If the new CX J is at an angle to the window this means that 4 airlines are now committed to herringbone layouts in J: VS, NZ, AC & CX. Maybe over time everyone will be moving to this or the EOS-style layout to give evey J seat aisle access? Personally I prefer the EOS layout since window seats have a decent view, but it's not as space efficient as the herringbone layout.

Those Ycl seats look pretty fab... good to see investment/innovation in Economy.

Jcl is alot smaller than the UCS... about the size of the BA current club world seat but with our configuration.

Fcl looks simply amazing... wonder what SQ will do now?

Very nice in all cabins, Yet another airline to follow suit with UCS type seats!

Sorry to break the trend, but the (what looks like) naff veneer wood finish on the F config looks revolting. Not exactly a big fan of the putrid blue colour they've used in J either - not exactly soothing on the eye. [n]


They look a bit "bitty" to me - not quite like a finished product. Can't quite put my finger on it, but I'm not impressed.



Having said that, I've never liked the styling of UA or BA's "First Class Suites" either. [V]
