Thanks. My other options are right at the back of the big middle cabin. Or then into the last cabin.
Ive never been in the final cabin - is the noise from behind noticeable? Is the meals service super late? There look like so many rows!

If you are seated at the back of the last cabin you will be one of the first to be served as the crew 2 of the 8 crew working in CW start there, I don’t think there is an anymore noticeable noise there.

having just stepped foot off the plane, I can confirm bulkhead DO have additional foot space!but not a lot. ~3 inches added width and ~4 inches added height. While not a ton, it would make a difference for someone with long legs or big feet. Comparison photos below.
Normal seat. Not bulkhead.
Bulkhead seat.

Premium economy, worth reserving a seat?
Hello I am looking for advice please.
Flight:
DOH to LHR
Cabin class: World Traveller Plus
Aircraft type: 777
Flight number: BA0126
I upgraded to a premium economy seat for my flight hoping for as much leg room as possible. I was disappointed to see that the seats I would have chosen to purchase have already been reserved.
Is there any point in me paying for 24AB (no one behind and an aisle seat for my 6ft 2 partner even though its in front of the toilet)?
Current reserved seats by others: 20A-K, 21A, 21JK, 24JK.
At this point Im tempted to save my 90 and just hope that we get one aisle seat. Thank you

Morning all.
LHR/SIN next Weds in Club, 77H. Mini cabin full, no bulkheads. Only seats available are row 17in addition to the odd middle seat, or seats in the rear cabin.
What are people’s thoughts on the rear cabin? I read a lot about the pros of the mini cabin, for obvious reasons.I'm not in a rush to deplane, would the rear cabin be a good choice due to having less rows? Or row 17? Thinking primarily about meal service and noise levels.
TIA.

Going back to this topic (broadly), how far in advance do flights get swapped to the runts of the LHR fleet? Booked in Business back from ATL next August and while I know way too far in advance for anything now, I am aware that the ATL flight often falls foul of a swap to an old CW..
