I think you mean A340

Difference without a distinction as far as this conversation is concerned.

I'd rather LY even if Swiss was 1/100. The marginal improvement isn't worth the risk of an economy seat for me.

At 1%, on a flight that short, smart money is on LX.

99*marginally better > 1* materially worse, IMO.

LX J is not at all THAT much better than LY J. IINM LX J is not lie flat either and as a recliner I really enjoyed LY J.

Did you guys hear about those upcoming China Eastern suites? Shanghai to JFK starting in November. Looks just as good as Singapore's.

That's what the discussion is about. Did you miss the last page?

Sometimes I get the impression you just like to see yourself talking...

Just as good as SQ? Rubbish.

Of course the soft product won't rank, and from the pics I've seen, the hard product is not nearly as refined or elegant as SQ.

SQ soft product is the best in the world IMHO.

But the seat itself leaves what to be desired.

Hard product is more than the seat.

Do you want the Gucci bag or do you want the cheap knockoff from China?
