BNE-SIN EK J or F question on seats

[craven morehead]

Could somebody please advise whether EK 777-300 have lie flat beds in J?

I have a 2.30am departure ex BNE so will be looking to get some sleep if possible.

F seats available and only an extra 30k points so happy to go F but also mindful of not wasting points for the sake of it.

Cheers CM

The 777's usually don't have flat beds in J but the angle. I'd go F for the experience. No shower though.

But then again, if it's a pared down F experience I would think hard about it especially as it is a 2.30am flight. I did 777 J from SIN to SYD earlier this year and did sleep well even though not fully flat (I didn't notice I must say - perhaps a couple of wines helped)

J bed on 777 is angled flat but I didn't find it uncomfortable, perhaps a little too short (I'm 6'). F bed is fully flat, and suite makes it private, but 2am departure means you sleep and will miss the F service experience, so I'd "slum it " in J.

And it was a nice upgrade

Yes it was
Particularly as the flight was checkers in Y.

Adelaide only has the 777 service to Dubai and J is very nice and certainly seats good enough for sleeping.

Righto J it is on the way over and F on the way back. A much more respectable departure time of 15.15
Should be able to make full use of the F experience then and saved 30k points for another day
Thanks for everyone's input. Cheers CM

We're doing something similar and flying EK SIN-BNE early November in F. Tossed up about spending the extra 30,000 points but thought what the hell! It's a day/night flight so you get to enjoy it more plus by using points it's a cheap way of getting the F experience (even if it’s only a 7 ½ hour flight). Going the other way not too worried as as others have pointed out it's an early morning departure so probably more interested in sleeping than eating and drinking.

Not so. BNE currently has a temporary direct 777 service ending next week.
