Cathay Pacific Asia Miles - CX 4-class Boeing 777-300ER -- Row 71

Hi. Does anyone have experience with the 2-seat rows (last 2 rows) on Cathay's new 4-class 77W? Seatguru doesn't have it yet, but Cathay's system labels it as "U" or least preferred. However, I like the 2-seat row because I will be traveling with my partner and don't want the 3rd person. But if there's a lot of traffic, limited recline, off-centered video display, maybe it won't be worth it. Anyone have experience there?
Here is a map, row 71, left side:

Good Luck.

That's the lavatory seat.

It's actually near the crew door to the upstairs, the lavatory is well behind that, so not sure if people will congregate that.

Upstairs? In a 777?

Absolutely. The crew rest in 777's are almost always upstairs. Though, usually at the front of the plane. Do a google image search for plenty of photos.

Yes they hang down from on the ceilings :P

Yes, I've seen them, they are these small compartments you climb into, but they are usually at the front of the plane, not the back.

The crew rest in front of the aircraft is for the flight crew while the crew rest in the back are for the cabin crew. So total of 2 crew rest areas. Front of the plane - flight crew. Rear of the plane - cabin crew.

Hi, thanks.
I'm more interested in row 71, seat A & C. Is this a good couple's seat, or a bad seat?

Thanks!

We did indeed get off topic. I don't have any experience with this exact plane, but my experiences on other airlines, traveling as a couple, is that the 2 seats alone at the back of the plane are much preferable over having a stranger right up against one of you for that long of a flight. Usually there's a bit of extra space next to the window seat, due to the curvature of the plane. The video screens will not be off center very much, if at all. Traffic will be more than other places on the plane, but I don't think you'll have a bunch of people lingering on the A-C side, due to the lavatories being somewhat far away.

Personally, I would take 71 A-C without hesitation.
