I've been debating too on waiting until 48 hours or select a seat now. My flight isn't until November. I've flown their A380 a few times before, and had aisle seats in the second row. They were fine, but you get all the crying babies up front. Had the extra legroom seats near the bassinets on Qatar, and that was a baby screaming nightmare. I'm actually looking at trying to get the last row (bulkhead)of that first section. They don't recline but nobody won't be behind me pulling on my seat. And the galley is right there for easy refills However, the center last row has an aisle with people walking behind you holding on your seat. I'm steering clear of those.
