I realize there's no such thing as "best" because it depends on one's preferences but please indulge me with your opinion. I'm thinking of 5D which is the left center aisle seat in the first of two rows of the small business class section wedged between first class and the business class galley (the rest of business class is behind this galley). I chose this seat because presumably it has more privacy and also I tend to have a lot of stuff out (books, magazines, newspapers, iPod, MacBook, toiletry kit, etc.) and would like them within easy reach for the duration of the flight (except during take-off and landing, of course) and hope that 5E, being a center seat, will most likely be empty and can serve as repository. Thoughts?
I haven't flown on that config myself but I have reserved 5K for my coming flights. One major problem with 5K and other window seats is it's hard to hear the cabin attendant. I wish they have an exit row like the old 744 config which will solve this problem. Also I would like to look out the window during the flight to find out what's going on

By the way when are your flights? They are temporarily switching JL001/002 to W73 between Oct 25 and Nov 23.
