757 Bulkhead or Exit Row??

Just curious to see how many Plats would choose the reserved exit row seats over the bulkhead seats - particularly on the 757.

The doorside bulkhead offers infinite legroom, however, the lav is located right there - you will get alot of foot traffic, lineups, bad smells and extra noise from the door. I always book the second exit row aisle as my no-upgrade backup plan. Remember the first exit row does not recline.

I love 7c(752) & 8C (753) because of the huge amount of legroom. Never noticed the bad smells - but there are people who congregate. 7a/8a have the door slide to contend with.

IMHO, both are great rows.

My first choice is the bulkhead, not only for the legroom, but also for the easy on/off the plane. Also, being in the front err... make that the 'front' you are also the first to be served. As always, YMMV.
