I think the other exception are the NEOs with the extra large overhead space (hat bins) where the bulge out doesn't allow the curtain mechanism to fit in. I would like to think that is being worked on.......

I believe it is a bit of an oddity.

Someone said on another thread that the newest Neo with these bins does have a curtain, can’t remember where that post was right now.

Yes indeed, there was a post about it in the middle of some other thread, but Delta Kilo had a front starboard window put in just before or at the early stages of the pandemic. I've flown her since, and you can't tell that it is new, it's been carefully blended into the cabin interior.

I have been selecting row 1 with a great success rate as a Bronze/Silver (Ruby/Sapphire) at T-72h, about 9 out of 10 times.
As a reference point on the general discussion of this thread, flew out to KEF on Friday (G-TTNT) and no wi-fi available but wi-fi and charging ports both available on the return yesterday (G-TTNK) - (albeit wi-if only really worked for the last hour of the flight, apparently a common issue on that route according to CC)

This passenger is precisely the reason why I take more than 2 sanitising wipes from the basket upon boarding then wipe down all surfaces I'm likely to come into contact with.... her feet were everywhere except on the floor.

it is better leg room since you can stretch your legs under the seat in front. in row 1 there is a bulkhead so that isn't possible.
