If you choose the front row window seats or row 9 window they are a little longer. However row 9 has no actual window to look out of. I am just over 6 foot and did find it a little uncomfortable for sleeping on an overnight flight. If you're a little shorter you may be fine. I had no issue at all on the daytime flight. If you can get the A340 I would go for that. Most/all of them have had a soft refurb so the cabins are nice. They also have the little armrest on both sides which actually does make a difference when sitting. 787 is the top of the pile but not sure if that's an option?

Hope that helps!
