Last row a "gem"

He's the first person I have ever met who has voluntarily sat in the last row.
I love the last row for several reasons. One is that on a full flight the last few rows are more likely to still have a middle open seat. Two, the last row seating makes it easy to get another cocktail without having to wait; and thirdly when the urge arises you have a very short trott to the LAV and know when it is available
