I came here to ask this question, anyone have an opinion? It's a pair of long flights too (SEA-HKG-SEA).

The first row of the A330 has a strange looking bin due to the curvature of the fuselage, but it fits a legal size roller bag plus a presonal item, although it's easier if the personal item is flexible and can be bent or squished a bit IME. Otherwise all BE window seats seem equivalent, although the last row risks being close to babies in coach bassinets.

DTW to NGO Jan. 17th
I will be flying from DTW to NGO on Jan. 17th with Delta. I have 10A seat. I have 2 question about the seat. Does it have a window if so is it easy to see out of or do you have to lean forward to see out? Also does this seat and 10B have a tv screen for each seat?

Every seat on DL's A330s has its own PTV screen. In 10AB they swing out from under the fixed armrest. There is a large monitor on the bulkhead in front of you that shows the flightmap and stuff, but IME the FAs will turn that off during overnight flights.
Note that the equation is slightly different on the A333. On that plane, row 10 is an exit row, and the door slide can get in the way of 10A/10J. Can't remember the window situation.

Is an A332 the same as a A330-200 332?
10AB are quite good seats on the A332. Excellent legroom (enough where 10A can access the aisle without 10B needing to get up, particularly if they know each other), and IIRC there are two windows in this row so very easy to see out.

I don't think there is AC power in this row, if that matters.

I flew 22J two years ago and remember it being pretty good. No slide protrusion, tons of space, and not nearly as cold as the exit row on the 764. I don't recall any issues with the seat padding, and people waiting for the lav wasn't a problem for me.

I don't like the mini cabin, it's last to be served food and because US airlines insist on using tissue paper curtains between classes all the light/sound from Economy spills into it.
