there is no specific route as planes just do any number of rotations in a day and so far it seems that a 320 is a 320 is a 320. I have already had the neo on a dozen European and domestic destinations including NCE GVA PRG HEL ARN GLA BRU LCA MAN DUB etc. I don’t think there are any at lgw but anything else served by a 320 or a 321 is fair game...

I'm yet to do one, but I've seen them on LIS, BUD, WAW, PRG, HEL routes quite regularly (all from T3). You can easily see what they're doing on FlightRadar:

hmmm... maybe I confused my NEOs and my CEOs! Will amend accordingly!

Second time on a NEO last night and I thought I'd record some observations. I was in row 10 in ET so in a pinnacle seat - no noticeable difference to the CEO seats really, apart from the addition of at seat power. On that point, because the power sockets are positioned below the seat and set back a little, they are hidden by the overhanging seat cushion. You might not actually know they are there except for the green glow of the 'on' light, and also they are difficult to use because with no space to bend down, you can't easily see what you're plugging into where. It's a good addition so I'm not moaning, but the placement of these is not great.
I ventured back to use the rear toilet and I found it to be perfectly OK. Compact, sure, but perfectly adequate. It was notable that the door of the central toilet (the one with the cabin crew seat on the back) was misaligned and wouldn't fully close or latch. I did wonder about the robustness of having a seat attached to a hinged door, but I guess Airbus will have thought of that in designing this setup. CC commented that they have very limited space to work with, and have to do a lot of shuffling of trolleys between front and rear galleys prior to departure.
The slimline seats beyond row 12 don't look too bad - although I'd be interested to hear any views of those who have actually sat in them. The rear of the cabin actually looks quite open and spacious (even though this was a full flight) but I think that's due to the seats being slimmer without the separate head rest / wings, rather than anything else.

I embrace the continental concept of plein air pissoirs just as much as the next man when required, but I can see this being a bit awkward in the confines of a space-saver galley at the back of an Airbus...

The toilet door is clearly supposed to close and latch, just that on this aircraft (G-TTNC) the door had become misaligned with the frame and wouldn't properly shut. It was noted by the crew, so presumably will get fixed soon.

Supplemented of course by murmurs of discomfort resounding from the aft of the cabin, as the pax in the back discover what it feels like to be pressed into an ironing board.

Exit rows on high density A321
Hi
We have a trip to ARN in a few days and the seat map has changed to what appears to be a high density A321.
Got option of row 9 and 10 and both are classified as exit row although row 9 is a 2 seater rather than 3.
Any recommendation on which row has better leg room?

For leg room, 10. For couple-dom 9. There's another thread on A321s with more details, best start at the end of the thread.
