The J seats on the 787 are pretty standard and are exactly the same as AC's seats. Hard product wise, it's the same. But reverse herringbone direct-aisle access is MUCH better than the dated crappy LH hand-me-downs 4Y runs.
Soft-product wise, WS used to blow them out of the water. Now that we've gone to a single plated meal, AC wins. Catering is a big part of the J experience and it's cheapened when it goes from multi-course with menus to a single plated offering.
Having said that, we are still very, very fortunate to have the TATL/TPAC direct options we have with something resembling a J cabin.
