I will be flying JFK-HKG for the first time on CX and am very keen on finding a good seat. (Long-time AA flyer, looking forward to first CX experience).
Thanks so much!

i had considerable amount of experience in Row 30 and 31.
31 C and H suffer from the traffic to the lavatory (quite a bit) and A K have their sight blocked by the exit. 31 B and J are great but you will be between two people which myself don't like such scenes.
30 DEG can be noisy as it is just right next to the lavatory (and also the baby bassinet), they also has less leg room than seat in row 31.
Any of the seat from row 30 and 31 are better than the rest of the Y seats, but if I am given the chance, I will pick one from row 31.
Row 30/31 will be extremely cold, I had my own blanket with me last time since the blanket by CX are not good. I also had a big bag as a foot rest, lol
by the way, row 54 and 55 will suffer from the light from the galley a lot.
Also please check out this link, since sometimes seatexpert has better seat maps

Do you travel a lot between BOS/SFO on AA? I am sure CX will give you a way better experience than the crappy services provided by old crews on old AA planes.
As an AA Plat, you may try to call them up and reserve a seat before the online system open
