CX838 - Seat selection help
Need some help with seat selection from HK to YVR. Online seat selection shows 44B as "extra legroom" seat, but 44A is not. Is this a matter of the door parts sticking out a bit? I usually prefer window, but a 6'2" I'd much rather have more legroom.
This is part of a 26,000 itinerary that will push me to Gold, JFK - HK - SYD - HK - YVR - JFK in 9 days.. My usual Oct trip was cancelled so I'm a month behind, but not too bad. I will end up 195 miles short of Gold, but the kind folks at MPC said that they would credit me and bump me to Gold at the end of my trip.
Thanks in advance for any help...

go with 44B/C/H/J or you will be jealous of your neighbor's legroom the whole flight.

Thanks for the quick and awesome reply folks, this is why I love this forum.
Ok, I think I've sat at a similar sets before, I just have to balance leg room, with the window sets that I prefer for sleeping.
Marcus, it seems like you are a bit of an expert on this flight, do you have any other suggestions on a choice sets?
Thanks much,BN

On a recent long haul flight on the 74A, I was very happy with my seat 44G (bassinet). Preferred it over 44 C/H (chances of passengers waiting in front of you).
