In terms of seat functions, the tray is built in under the LCD screen, and just to the right of the tray lever is the usual power socket and a HDMI input. The wider main seat does mean that 2 people can sit together comfortably, but you’re not allowed to do that for a prolonged period of time anyway. But I don’t feel it adds much to your personal comfort. In terms of numbers, the F seat is also wider at 35” compared to 28” in J, and the screen is also bigger at 24” compared to 18”. In contrast, the F seat has a large (almost too large) cut out for your feet, and space enough for at least 2 cabin sized luggage. Being over 6’ tall, the major gripe I have about SQ J is the small and angled foot cubby. In terms of the hard product, the main advantage F provides over J is the dedicated legroom and additional storage space each passenger gets. In my late night stupor I actually thought to myself: ‘Why is it 16F on this plane?’ before I realized it was actually Business! The 2013 business class seats are really thoughtfully designed and i feel they afford a step up in privacy compared to the 2006 version, almost looking like First Class. This makes for an extremely intimate front J section. In the 3-class 77W configuration, the Business cabin is divided into a small 8 seat cabin immediately behind F, followed by the main J section with the rest of the 34 seats. I took a quick peek at the Business cabin behind, and was momentarily taken aback. Having wanted to give our daughter as much undisturbed rest as possible prior to the flight, we were one of the last passengers to board, and the rest of the F cabin was already full. Our flight had 8 in First Class, and so it was a pleasant surprise when we stepped into the cabin to find that we’d be flying the new products. Once you see this configuration at seat selection, you can be confident of scoring the new products (barring any last minute equipment change of course). The good news is that the rest of the 77W fleet have the new products in the new configuration of 4F/48J/28S/184Y.

I don’t think there is any practical way to determine which product you’d be flying, so it’s best to assume it would be the former. The other 3 planes already sport the refreshed 2013 seats. If you see this configuration on your seat-map, there is a 6/9 chance that you’d be flying the old 2006 product. The first 2 are similar, and consist of 8 First Class seats, 42 in business and 228 at the back. SQ currently has 27 Boeing 777-300ER in their fleet, in 3 different configurations. But for what it is worth, Milelion gets its very first trip report for this product! Hindsight is 20/20, and seeing that we had already secured bulkhead J seats prior to the upgrade together with the fiasco we endured at ticketing, it was a terrible mistake.

That was pretty much the real reason why I shelled out all those additional miles. I may have given all manner of excuses for flying my family on F in my previous posts, but it’s time for some honesty Prior to this flight, I’ve not had the chance to experience SQ’s First Class.
