I'd stick with Row 4. They might run out of Champagne buy the time they get to Row 9.
Not that it's great champagne, but better than cava crap

I'd move to the Exit row. Often when there is a large CE they will serve in both directions (one trolley going front to back whilst another goes back to front).

Me neither. When did you see this my handsome Navylad?

I have seen them start at the back and work back to the galley - NCE was notorious for that.

@PUCCI GALORE flattery will get you everywhere

I've had it on theee SH 321 trips in the last year- DUB and 2 x MAD. Have had 1 321 flight they didn't. It probably depends on how full and how long the flight is.

As you say they must have been full as this would have triggered an extra FA (I think - I have not flown a 321 for a while). Still it's a sensible way to serve. Had it been Long Haul in my day, I would have probably served you myself. What's your tipple?

We made the right decision. I was very surprised that CE was not full, quite a few empty seats. It wasn't full in the back either.

Great seats in row 9! Loads of room, and bonus- cabin crew wheeled the trolley to the back, our row, then started serving forward !!! Great..

When we go home there isn't a row 9 in Bizzo, but I have bagged 1A&C . Sitting in the Costa Del Sol sunshine now with a cold beer by the pool. Not looking forward to going home, but knowing Row 1 bizzo, makes it less depressing slightly !!
