Flying TPE-LAX in Y on BR16. Believe it is 77n. Any opinions on seat 57A for solo traveller? 57A has one other seat next to it, not two, but it is next to the lav. Value ability to sleep.
Flying TG from BKK.and connecting to LAX on same ticket. Is it possible to select exit row seats at olci or can tg agents in BKK assign exit row seats for the BR flight?

I would book a window seat as far back in the plane as you can (excluding the back row) that has an empty seat next to it, and someone in the Aisle seat. then you have a chance at an empty seat next to you.
then, start checking a few days before for rows 68-71 to open up.

With temporary capacity adjustments on certain routes, the 77B(10-abreast) has been all over the system. It has been flying CDG, just visited YYZ today, flew BR23/24 SEA etc.

57A may be a limited recline seat. You are probably guaranteed someone sitting next to you. Both are negatives to me.

On my YYZ TPE flight, I saw the entire middle section was empty a few days ago, and both A and K in the forward cabin were reasonably full
Now almost the entire center part of the business cabin is full. What gives?

I really really hate 77B J class light green color. Also someone please tell BR to add more movies. There really isn’t anything to watch after first flight.
