Hello bingobob777, hope this helps a little.
Row 10 is a bit close to the galley for my liking and 10 has a part window blank as you can see from the photo below and row 12 view is obscured mostly. Row 10 by leaning forward a little affords a reasonably good view. The rest are fine and It's row 15 that has a blank but there's not really much of a view overall from that CW cabin bar 10 and 11. Here are a few photos of mine from a TR and leaning right back for the engine/runway view.
Personally I would choose row 13 and 14, J/K for westbound so the sun isn't glaring through. This is an older site but accurate in my view whereas the BA source shows an error in row 14 which does have a full set of windows. Have a look at this and hover over the seat map to see photos.

Thanks! It is usually a fairly empty flight from around that date onwards. Our return flight a few weeks later on a Saturday (landing Sunday) is usually much busier!

I'm sure I'm repeating a question here but I can't see a clear answer - what are the best pair in CW on the 773? I currently have 10AB and 10JK for a SIN<>SYD trip and what I seem to be hearing is that they have an annoying missing window but nothing else nothing else is standout better and row 16 is to be avoided for reasons of toilet proximity?

777-200 WT missing window row??
According to the BA Source:
77A - WT starts row 15, missing window is row 16 (the 2nd row in the cabin)
77S - WT starts row 16, missing windon is row 17 (2nd row)
I have just seen a video showing someone sitting in row 15 (therefore on the 77A) but the missing window was a further 2 rows back; row 17 (3rd row in cabin)
I am travelling on the 77S soon and originally booked row 17, but then moved back to 18, based on missing window. However, if the missing window is 3 row backs on the 77A, is it likely to also be on the 77S - which is row 18, and where I am currently sat! Annoyingly row 17 is now blocked, and obviously 16 not available to me yet.
If anyone can clarify which row on 77S has the missing window that would great, as I can't find confirmation anywhere and the seats maps vs the video are conflicting

777-300 (77W) CW seats window alignment
Row 16 of course has the direct aisle access and as it is at the back of the CW cabin sometimes passengers from WTP nip through especially at pre-landing times. A good crew will see this and deal with it as well as during the flight keeping the rope attached. (or as I have done at times re-attached it myself
)Personally I'd choose row 11 or 13, the latter which I've been in a few times, row 10 is a bit close to the galley for my liking but as always YMMV!
There'es a reasonably good video here which has the cabin views mostly at 4:30 onwards.

Don't choose row 16 would be my advice as the bulkhead is there and you can't stretch out unless you have very small legs. I have a photo somewhere which I'm sure I posted recently so I'll go and dig it out if I can find it!

I will be flying BA2272 JFK - LGW next week and it should be one of the refurbished 32J / 52W aircraft. I will be in WT+ so have a couple of questions that hopefully someone can answer.
Firstly, are there any seats in the WT+ cabin missing a window?
Secondly when flying on the mid-J 747 I would usually take row 16 as there's no one behind me and hence no one either kicking the seat or using it as a springboard when they get up. Row 16 on the 777 has WT immediately behind, presumably a bulkhead and hence bassinets on the other side? I would assume that there's no issue with limited recline if I was to choose row 16?
Thanks in advance for any insight (preferably real world) that anyone can provide.

Hope this helps. (see video from at 00:18 and 1:40 onwards for cabin views)
Not many replies on the latest posts, seems I am in a tiny minority of the BA 777 fan club!
