There were quite a few times people hovering around the lav for extended periods waiting for it to be free.

Service was good overall. I'm not sure if it's because we are both OW Emerald, but one FA came over to take our dinner selection before takeoff and didn't ask for anyone else's choice until later. However...

There was also an odd episode with the FA coming over to me to ask whether my companion was taking photos of him... he said the thought the iPhone was pointed in his direction, but he said, "Unless you were just taking a selfie." I told him that, yes, we were taking a selfie (we took several photos, some selfies, some of other things, never intentionally the FAs, so I'm not sure which particular photo he was talking about). My companion had never been criticized for taking photos on any other airline before and was a bit shaken by this at first. It definitely wasn't a friendly welcome for someone's first mainline IB flight, especially in J.
