Has AF retrofitted the 777300-ER to the new J? Looking at AF21, seatguru has it as 2-3-2 but AF website has it as 1-2-1.

QR 777 is lie flat. a340 is angle flat.

QR a320/RJ a320/EY a320 are all recliner seats.

Aha. The second flight is the one I care about most since it's longer at around 4 1/2 hrs

Do they have F, will booking F change anything?

When traveling with someone on EY A380 F, are seats 3/4A or 3/4K better, or is there absolutely no difference?

The only difference is the color of the seat.
3/4A = Light colored.
3/4K = Dark colored.

Lol, cool, but I don't think that's a practical difference.

It's actually pretty simple.
