If you look at the map you will see 2 seats in row 11, J and K. These "appear" to be the bulk head seats. And are in fact, the only seats in row 11. My questions is the following: British Airways telephone agents are telling me that in Row 12, that seats J and K are Bulkhead. I think this would be impossible, based on the map. (Clearly the OTHER seats in row 12; AB, DEFG, ARE bulkhead) So I wondered if anyone had any personal, first-hand experience with these seats (12 J and K) to hear if they are or are not bulkhead, and any other details they may have about these seats (arm rests move?, foot rest working?, TV screen good/bad, etc.) - any insight is much appreciated. :-)

i’ve done this cabin three times over the past year. I always select 12A as there is no bassinet restriction on that seat and I find it very easy to get in & out without disturbing the person beside me. The IFE is on an arm that locks into the divider between the seats by the leg rest but I have no real issues with it. All of those planes have old IFE so bring your iPad / laptop with some downloads of you really want to catchup some movies/shows.

Hi,
I chose 12 B coming back from Las Vegas in September in WT+ and had 12A free so I moved into it and the seat was fine for WT+.

11 JK are the best seats in the cabin - secluded and lots of space. Only drawback is when there is one crew member for WTP and one catering trolley starting in the left aisle.

12AB are always freezing tend to get colder as the flight goes on. Reasonable seat but a warm top is required.
