From what I can make out, people to tend to queue in the galley area behind, rather than by row 39, but if the cabin crew are making up the trolleys the queue would end up in the main seating area.

If you are a single passenger, then maybe you'll try and get an empty middle seat towards the back, and therefore depending on loads, looking at rows 35 etc.
Thanks for this.

Not sure I want to gamble on an empty middle, I'm a single traveler but I might hold 39J and see if the Check In Agent offers anything to try get a couple in there. I'll have a think about 20/21 row for the return leg to the US.

Such a pity BA have diluted their standard economy product like this on the 787s.
