That's if you took already EK, EY, SQ, and CX but I don't think he is up to there yet.

Looks like only an inch difference on the width, 21 vs 22 inches.

Either way, I'd much rather direct aisle access, and a brand new product without wear than a slightly larger seat and perhaps better food if you're not ordering KSML.

And TK is in a 2-3-2 config (!) vs. 2-2 a la CX.

I'm suggesting saving your miles and flying one of the above... or LH or OZ or JL or...

The seat doesn't lean back much more than a regular seat. You have to get up out of it and fold it FORWARD to turn it into a lie-flat! There's no room to put your stuff either.

It's not even worth redeeming for. I'm suggesting he skip that "step."
