Don't really want to spend the first 8 hours of my honeymoon with my legs falling asleep
Hi gwfr1g4t,

I recently did the ZRH-ORD-ZRH trip with LX. Although I sat in C seats (14 A/B), I had a good view of seats 22 D/G and the leg room. They have a reasonable amount of space and you can stretch your legs past the bulkhead, but you have the biz class curtain in front of you and no doubt a lot of through traffic, so probably some clanking of feet and ankles. Being 6'4", I too would agree with goliath and go with Row 29, if you can get it.

Don't forget to check in online 23hrs before hand online, it's your best bet of getting those seats, as if you wait until you arrive at the airport, there wont be a chance in hell of you getting those seats. Unless you turn up with a cast on your leg!!!

Have a safe flight.
