I also notice on Seat Guru that the 12A window is misaligned but might consider 13a if the wing starts at 12. Does that have a decent view, or do you think going back to have a worse view to row 16a which has the blocked middle seat is the better value? I can almost give up my view for that.
Thanks!
Both the standard and AVOD configurations (versions 1 and 2 on SeatGuru, respectively) have row 30 as the last row. They can be distinguished by the number of the
first row. If it is 7, it is the standard 16/144 configuration; if it is 8, it is one of the newer 16/134 aircraft with AVOD that has not yet been reconfigured.
The standard configuration is by far the most common. I can confirm that 10A and 12A are both missing windows, though I can't recall if the window for 11A is misaligned or not. On the right side of the plane, only 12F is missing a window.
