17B or 8B on A380
 
No window seats available and only inner centre seats and the above two aisle seats.

The only two aisle seats left are 17B or 8B - any preference ?

8 B is closer to the first class and 17 B is further behind. The benefit of 8 B is you are likely to get served food first which is a benefit if you like to be served food first

Depends on the cut off where they assign the next set of crew members to look after pax - 17 is likely to be served around a similar time as 8 (or quicker given the walk time to the rear galley).

All lavatories in J on the A380 are in the rear, so that might factor into your decision.

I'd probably go for 17 given its proximity to the bar :D

8B. you'll have less people coming back and forth to/from restrooms or bar (especially MAN flight ;) )
and you'll be off sooner.

Why bother with eating. Just head to the bar and then if you think you can still stand on 2 legs think about eating....
