If you can't get E+ I would go for the minicabin rows 32-34. If you can book a window / aisle, there is a chance the middle seat remains open (and if not a middle pax is aways happy to trade for a window or aisle. There is far more engine noise etc at the back, and it takes forever to deplane making for a long customs / passport wait in general.

YOu are right about the space at the window side, and this is useful, so not a bad choice if you dont mind sitting right at the back.
