I was hoping it would feel more cozy and private to me and my service dog being in the bulkhead with nobody in front of us, and with the lack of divider between the two middle seats we would feel enclosed altogether, but I wonder if it will be less private? Also, if the galley noise is so extreme it may worry my service dog. Is it that bad? Light seems a nonissue in this short day flight.
