Hi I tried to find this above but there are so many pages to this thread....... I will be flying Q Suites for the first time in December and just wanted to hold the best seat. Its the A350-1000 and I know I want an A or K and I know I want to be in the forward cabin . I also know I dont want 1 or 7. I am looking at 3 or 5 and A or K. Both 3 and 5 seem equally close to their respective galleys.. Is one of the galleys typically louder than the other? Also, what about A or K? I'll be heading Lax to Doha if that impacts decision on A Vs. K. I typically always sit on the right but most all my flights are AA so reverse herringbone. I like everything on my right. i.e. table, drink, window.. In forward/rear staggered facing regardless of if I take A or K either my table or window cant both be on my right...So its kind of a toss up between A or K. I read somewhere that typically the Purser handles rows 1 though 3 on the A side and they tend to, on QR, offer the best service.

Btw, I've never flown rear facing, outside of take off and landing my understanding is you cant tell?
