You just get slightly better leg room in Row 1 but no middle seat blocked, better choose the exit row seat for more legroom if not in hurry depart the aircraft at arrival. I usually ask exit row or some row in the front in check at the airport but choose the seat as front as you can, if not in exit row, planes are usually full. Depend the airport you might have a bus transfer to/from aircraft. In IGU you walk, SAO is a common name, it is either GRU or CGH, so is RIO, either GIG or SDU. I would choose SDU( nice views in landing and take off) to and from Rio de Janeiro and CGH(when not in int.transit).
