They certainly need to upgrade their existing woeful business class seats. I reckon they are the amongst the worst there are .
Very narrow , claustrophobic , just ordinary IFE and very little privacy when sitting upright. Better than economy but way behind most other Business class seats. I really liked flying Business with Air NZ but give it a miss now because of these seats. The sooner they make a change the better!!!
I don't mind the 787 J "A" row, given that you don't look towards someone else and I have found it quite private sleeping. I may be against the grain however I find, especially if I am traveling for work (when I don't really want to be there), that the fully enclosed seats are a little claustrophobic for my liking; so I enjoy the NZ seats. It is why I can't stand the BA seats.
I know however that a lot of people here don't like them a lot and I can see for those who like to be enclosed why that is the case.
