If so, I would definitely book an aisle seat.
Also, would row 1 or row 5 be preferable? Thanks!
Window seat, and I have a strong preference for row 1 over row 5. I’d rather be close to the galley than the bathroom (especially since the mid-cabin bathroom door gets left open a lot), and the footwells in row 1 are extremely roomy. I also found with the bulkhead it’s nice and ‘private.’ I also find with the extra space in the bulkhead stepping over isn’t too bad.
(If you plan on sleeping for much of the flight I think 1F is the best seat on the plane)
