11 A/K, 19 A or 20 K on 33E
Flying CX 712 next week and have a choice of these seats, hence asking for opinions for which to pick.

Thank in advance

My preference would be 20K.

I assume you are looking for the most "private" experience. Mid-galley isn't as heavily used IME and I find that seat feels more cocooned than the others. 11A/K are closer to the more heavily used galleys and hence noisier but also might get served more quickly.

Yup, it's a toss between privacy and being served first and deplane first on landing at HKG cos I do have a pretty tight schedule to keep on landing. Aiming to do 30 mins tops from doors open to plonking my mid-autumns on the AEL.

I prefer 11 because you don't have to deal with all of Y boarding past you

Where is the toilet door? on the opposite side adjacent ti the exit door? Ever experience any smell leakage from the lav? Not trying to challenge, just genuinely curious.

The door to the lav open towards door 2R opposite the crew seat.

+1 to row 11 for a quieter boarding experience.
