It's getting tiring flying CX and especially frustrating queueing up for upgrade, even with OWS.

Back on main topic:
I'm debating taking either seat 2, 3 or 7A. I like taking photos of the engine inflight, but I'm not sure which one will have less noise.

I'd like to take a photo just like this one:

You can use the window in doors 2L/R for a picture like that. But if you want to do it from your seat, you need a seat after the door. So 7A.

Edit: it also depends a bit on what camera you ate using. The window in the door is smaller and fairly deep, so if you use a DSLR or something like that. You want access to a "regular" window.
