Classica Plus Seat Choice
I'll be flying r/t JFK-FCO. Any advice on the seat choice ? Cabin looks pretty open at present. I'm travelling alone.
Would the bulkhead seats be better with nobody reclining in front of you ?
Sometimes the bulkhead is too close and the traytable in the armrest reduces the seat width, plus you have to keep all of your belongings in the overhead bin.
Is the food different from stadard coach ? AZ's website mentions special menus, but I've read a few trip report saying it is exactly the same food.
TIA

Hi, I've done FCO-NRT in July, on the way there 3rd row and back the bulkhead. I found bulkhead much more comfortable as the distance between rows is just a few inches more than in Y. Yes, you can stretch your legs in the first row...
AS for the food, do not expect anything extra, just pre-flight drink - cheap prosecco/juice/water and I think maybe there was a table-cloth/cutlery. Only perk is the amenity kit and better pillow/blanket...

Do you remember if the tray table is in the armrest for all the seats, or just for the bulkheads ?
Although I think you were on the 777 and the JFK route is served by the A300. They have different seats in PE.

It was A330, tray table is in the armrest only for bulkhead, as well as quite small IFE.
