Seat question
 
Hi all - I'm flying Cathay Pacific for the first time. Flying from Hong Kong to San Francisco on Cathay's A350-900. I chose seat 45D which is three rows forward of 4 lavatories on the A350. Am I too close.to the lavatories or should I book another seat farther away from the noise and odor (if any)?

Thanks

Hahahaha, Thanks for your input. Hopefully it's not my intestines that cause the explosion.

You will be fine, I've taken row 45 on an A359 and it is fine, I didn't notice there was a toilet 3 rows behind me :)
To distance yourself from the lavs on the A359 if you are still concerned, I would recommend sitting on the right side (G, H, J, K seats) because there is an extra row of economy on the right that will give you greater distance from the lavs, but it is fine either way.

for reference, I've recently flown HKG-LHR on an A359 row 44, one row further from the lavatories than 45, and I did not feel bothersome at all based on "proximity to lavatories" (partly because i was in a window seat as well
