I'm not sure you'll see much given the polar routing on the flight to Tokyo, but I'd probably pick an odd seat on the port side (A/D seats) on the return flight UA78 for the off chance of catching the Northern Lights in the darkness.

Any recommendations on which leg would have the best views and be worth it do windows? The flight there is 11am - 1:55 pm next day; flight home is 5pm - 4:45pm.
And then does row 9 count as 'bulkhead' as far as larger foot well space is concerned? My Husband is 6'3 so we might book those, my only concern is that in all images, there's ambiance lighting coming from that partition. Does that get turned off when it's 'sleep time?' If it's on, is it really noticeable? Thanks
