I'm sure this has been addresses multiple times on this forum, but I read a blog that said on the 777-300 they block out Row 11 (front bulkhead) until 48/96hrs prior the flight. Do they do this on the A350 as well?
Personally I feel the forward cabin is grossly overrated. Most of the passengers "crowd" there. I very much prefer the rear cabin when I'm usually one of the few there; on occasion it even felt like a private cabin when I was the sole passenger.
19 D, F is a great choice if you don't care about looking out of the window. In fact the foot space is a few inches longer than 19 A, F. Same with row 11.
The blockage of row 11 is across all routes, type of aircraft notwithstanding. So if you want them you need to secure them at 48 hours (US, Europe routes) or 96 hours (anywhere else) prior to departure.
