watch out for rows behind the bulkhead/exit rows
Hello people. This is a really small issue, but can make a difference if you travel long haul on Y class, so just wanted to share the nitty gritty detail. I figured that leg space underneath the bulkhead/exit row seats are limited, mainly because the entertainment system console. Try to avoid the seats behind these rows, as you might suffer the limited legspace on a long flight, like me

Note that people who opt to sit on Exit Rows on the 747-400s, in economy class will have to endure one thing. The entertainment console juts inward from the armrest so your 'hip space' is limited by about an inch. The seat can be snug if you know what I mean. I have seen fellow passengers really squeezed into the seats.... I felt sorry for them. But the plus side is that you have loads of leg room.
