Hi Kingstontoon:
I would love your input on why you don't like the exit rows on this plane? I had booked 16J from LHR-LAX in December, but was, thankfully, upgraded via SWU at the last minute (after boarding), so I didn't actually experience the seat other than while the plane was loading. It had TONS of legroom, however, which was pretty amazing and you are the first row in MCE, so food & drink choices should still be plentiful.

I'm on the same flight, again, in May (LHR-LAX) and have booked that same seat, again (with a mileage upgrade requested). Since it seems like upgrades are getting harder and harder if you aren't Exec Plat (I'm only Plat), I'd love some input on the most comfortable MCE for that long-haul in the event my upgrade fails.

Thanks!
