Is the service less attentive in the Signature "mini-cabin"?
This is I’m sure a question that is very subjective and anecdotal in some aspects but there are some true differences to be noted as well.
Pre-departure is much better in the front cabin, unless you enjoy having the entire rest of the plane walk past your seat with every 10th person or so making a joke or comment about how they aren’t sitting in J. (“Oh, these must be my seats, hahah”)
On the anecdotal side, I have usually felt the service was not as strong when I’m in the mini cabin on the 77W’s and 77L’s.
For seat selection I will choose the front cabin unless there are only centre seats left and there is a window still available in the mini cabin.
