I however have managed a few times to snag 6A or K much earlier, recently even for a flight in September next year! So it’s worth trying.
Otherwise apart from row 11 (also a missing window), you should get engine / wing views from all A/K seats. I avoid row 8 as it is close to the toilets and can be a bit noisy when people are waiting there.
Thanks for the quick reply.
I flew in to DXB on 5A and while it required a fair bit of stretching to see the engine, the wing was visible.
Just changed it to 10A since that was available.
