Quick economy seat question on a 747
Hello chaps,
Happy Holidays to all of you, and wishing you a safe new year ahead.
My partner is traveling on IAH-LHR on BA flight 194. The aircraft type is a 74G which is the 747-400 version 2 on seatguru.
Does anyone know if 39H is a regular exit row aisle seat, which usually has plenty of leg room, or not?
Would you recommend that for a solo traveler as opposed to a regular aisle seat further back?
Thank you lads,
Andrew

I was in 39K a few months ago and didn't like that seat / row. Didn't have any extra space and wall in front meant couldn't stretch out. Felt a bit claustrophobic.
I am lucky not to travel Y long haul very often so don't have much experience but personally will not proactively chose that row again.

As a Y traveller on the 744 I prefer the mini-cabin formed of rows 33-36. I normally take an aisle seat so can't comment on the K seats but I like the general feel of the smaller cabin.
Beware that row 33 (and 39) being bulkhead rows are often used by families with babies.
