Also avoid the 752s if you care a lot about the front because the people paying for it seem to know the 156º seat exists.

I agree. As much as I *heart* the 752, unless I'm paying for F or can confirm an upgrade at booking I will try to avoid it on that route...cuz I know I'm not gonna get the cushy seat!
