It's a night flight, and my feeling is that I'd rather sacrifice first choice of meal, if required, to avoid being 'trapped' in 1A all night and climbing over 2B every time I need to get out.

Are there any obvious disadvantages to 7J/K over 1A/B, apart from being back of the queue for meal choice?

I took 7K so I had the space to get out by the bulkhead and not climb over 7J.

I got my meal choice, but the service was so slow. I was literally the last for everything, albeit it was a terrible flight in general for service but thats another issue. I wasnt bothered by anyone in WTP but that was probably because of the route.
