Flying with a group of 4 people for the first time soon, likely in 748 F! Does anyone have thoughts on best seat choice configuration for 2 couples? I'm expecting the flight to be full in F by the time of departure (like it usually is nowadays…). I'm leaning towards 1 couple in the nose and 1 couple in the row 3 pair.

It'd be great to be able to socialize a bit, and maybe even eat dinner together. Anyone had luck with companion dining? Technically the ottomans are not seats without seatbelts (hence the "Not a seat" labels), and I'd expect Germans to follow the rules to a T, but I've seen a few blog posts with pics of people companion dining anyways:
