Me and my spouse always preferred to be seated in a window seat behind each other as it is just thrilling to have four windows on your own (gives a feeling like on a cruise ship
). This means row 2 with row 1 as the second best choice. Row 2 is usually blocked when the booking is made online but a phone call to EK reservations will free things up immediately (if booked well in advance). As mentioned before row 3 may be prone to infant noise from C class.
I definately agree. Row 2 seats are all around the best. For couples that want to sit next to eachother, the middle 2 seats are perfect. Personally however, I prefer row 3 to row 2. I find the foot traffic from the washroom and the galley noise worse at row one than the baby noise from row 3 (unless there is a REALLY noisy baby in J)
