JTS was also the last of the 734's to migrate from VH to ZK.

...
The changes in J seating are of concern if they spread beyond the A332s.

What area of concern do you have?

The ZK 73H's have (IMHO) substandard seating in both J and Y.

I find them quite uncomfortable for 3+ hour flights whether in row 1 or row 4.

Wish I had a 738 on my upcoming WLG-SYD trip. I'm getting a 734. In Y.

:evil:

Disagree, much prefer the new gen seating in both classes.

We'll have to agree to disagree.

Firstly, the seat is shorter than previously - raising the headrest up as far as it goes only just allows the back of my head to rest against it. I am 183cm, a taller passenger may have troubles resting their head comfortably.

Secondly, there is an edge at the top of the seat back cushion that digs into my shoulder blades when the headrest is raised, making it very uncomfortable. When lowered, the headrest sits on top of this edge. You can see the lowered headrests meeting this edge from the back in this photo:



I suppose being shorter saves weight, but I am surprised at how uncomfortable I found these seats. Smaller passengers should be fine.

The AVOD is good; certainly far better than previous offerings.
