I personally find the bulkhead and exit row seats to be less comfortable than the regular MCE seats due to the rigid arm rests. The seat is slightly more narrow because of this. I always pick a window seat mce and hope there is no middle seat occupant and that to me is much better.

Advice on AA125 DFW to HKG
I am Plantinum Pro but not sure which seat to pick?? I am flying to HKG and currently on 21L the seat map shows a gap between 21L and 21J. Is there a gap between these two seats so I can stand without disturbing passengers on 21J.

there is no 21J on this aircraft. There is a pair of 21K and 21L. Your seat is window and you have to disturb 21 K to get out of your seat

Flew JFK-LHR earlier this week. Row 20 does indeed seem to be true MCE seating. From what I could see there was plenty of legroom and if you are extra tall the bulkhead does not go all the way down to the floor. So there are spaces to tuck your feet into if needed,
My seat (22C) on the other hand was not a good choice despite having theoretically the best legroom. I got trampled on constantly by the guy in row 21 getting in and out of his seat every 30 minutes or so. I tried the trick of making my feet as visible as possible by wearing white socks, to no avail, lol. It seemed that even if I did not stretch out my feet this guy would still find a way to stomp on them. It’s also a tight squeeze for the cabin crew to manoeuvre the carts so I was knocked by them several times during the service.
My recommendation would be to get a seat in row 20 if you can. Failing that, the exit row seats in row 31. I would not recommend seats 22C or 22J.
Here are some pics:
20 A & C
Row 20 centre seats
22C - not recommended

Quite a delayed response, but I personally prefer 32 over the others, even with the slightly offset entertainment screens. The bulkheads (20 and 33) have the flip up tray tables and TVs so the seat is slightly narrower and the armrest can't be raised which bothers me a bit.

I'd avoid 33J or its counterpart 33C. I was in 33J on an LAX-HKG flight a couple of weeks back and was regretting my decision to book that seat even before we took off as seemingly every other person, including FAs, bumped my seat while passing. That went on for the 1.5 hours we were on the ground before they cancelled the flight due to the protest situation in HKG and I'd never been happier to get off a plane at 3:00 am under those circumstances. I cancelled my HK plans and got the next flight out to Tokyo on JAL the next afternoon. Heading back to Tokyo LAX-HND on same AA 777 next week and wish I'd found this thread earlier, thanks for the advice.

american 777 300er (77W) row 43 seats A/B, K/L recline?
We are flying MIA-EZE in December. The plane is a 777 300er (77W). For the two-seat configurations at the back of the plane, row 43 seats A, B and K, L, which have a wall behind them - do those get full recline or is it limited? I haven't been able to find a definitive answer online.
I have read that row 44, the four seats at the back in the middle section, have limited recline.

Another Seat Question on 777-300ER
I'm conscious this has been asked many many times on this thread, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with row 21, which appears to be missing a middle seat. I was also wondering about about 22K/B, and if there is a lot of leg room as it looks like there is no seat in front.
Any thoughts or experience would be great. Flight is LHR to DFW. Thanks!
