looks very similar to UCS.

There are a few threads on here about it James. The one key difference is that it doesn't "flip" like UCS does, so you end up with a few ridges in the bed surface.

PLUS, Air Canada have been promoting it for 3 years without doing anything about it. "Coming to an airplane near you"? Yeah, right... [ii]

Yeh was mentioned earlier in this forum.

Not quite UCS but very close to it. Though knowing AC they will decide to change it somehow to save money once its in half the aircraft. Like they did with their new livery.

I agree willd, It's just a matter of when the cost cutting exercise is revealed!!!!

Bringing this one back to the fore again.

AC have recently announced that as well as four new AC-owned 777s fitted with their version of the "suite-alike" product, they have signed a lease with ILFC to get a fifth ship introduced to the fleet more quickly, to expedite the replacement of the A340-300. The first aircraft should be delivered later this year.

I read a rumour that their 777 J config will look a lot like Air New Zealand's, but will contain a "stand up bar" next to the #2 doors, like on VS aircraft.

Cheers,
Mike
