Seat recommendations on RJ in Y?

Flying Royal Jordanian next month and am pretty surprised by the lack of seating info for their reconfigured A310. Anyone have tips for seat choice? I called and requested row 8, which seems to be a bulkhead, but would love any advice otherwise (row 7 in the middle, or further back in the plane in an exit row?).

Thanks in advance.

Shouldn't an exit row always have more room than a non-exit row? I'd choose that, but I speak without any experience on RJ in particular.

One would think but I've flown some LCCs that have the same legroom in exit rows with the bonus of a non-reclining seat :/

If you are in an exit row and there is another exit row behind (think about over-wing exits on A319, A320 & A321), then you seats won't recline. This is on all carriers and is for emergency reasons!

Wirelessly posted (Blackberry8700c: BlackBerry8310/4.5.0.46 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 VendorID/120)

RJ does have biz class but unfortunately its a bit more in cost

I'm surprised no one here so far has flown the a310 refurbs in coach!
