The seat width is reasonable and the good thing is that seats have much the same width all the way down. Width at feet level varies by seat in the cabin, but all are better than the A350.
Seat selection is free of charge in business class, and can be done at time of purchase or later through manage my booking.
I suggest you go for one of the L seats, with 1L with least limited width at feet level and very easy aisle access and 2L/4L/6L with slightly more privacy. 2A/4A/6A is also a great choice, but has those foot cubbies that limits you.
Thank you - very good info. We will probably go for 1L and 2L (we're a couple traveling together, but we both prefer window seats and do not require sitting together, just "close enough" is OK for 10 hours). I assume that the general consensus is that the benefits of 1L (more leg room) outweigh the potential downsides (no personal storage space on the floor there during takeoff/landing as it's a bulkhead, and the noise/light/disturbance of the galley/loo is minimal)?
Is it safe to assume that there are no seats blocked for elites, crew rest, etc. (that is, with a business class ticket, any seat should be selectable as long as nobody else has already grabbed it)?
Thanks again for the help.
