+1 I was in 26J the other day on EK1 coming in from my 10 hour EK776 in Y. Had a DJ in the bar (a passenger as well, of course) for about half the flight. He played screechy music the whole time and I had to use the noise cancelling headphones to sleep! Not very pleasant as all I wanted to do was sleep and recover from the Y!
