IIRC, there is a sliding drawer in the centre console (infront of 2 EF) where bags can be kept. Nobody usually uses it.
Bins above row 2 seem a bit smaller than those further back.

As serfty said. Sometimes no problems, other times, even when first in the cabin, I have told a very gruff "NO, not in there - find somewhere else". In any case, the first bag in will be covered with other bags (if OK with the crew) or service equipment or otherwise, general junk. Not the place if you want access throughout the flight.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. You booked for Y and you're getting half of Y+, IMHO, the best part of Y+.
I'm more than happy with that (and will fly via SFO to the USA whenever I go to get these seats). I'd be expecting a normal Y seat, and the rest is a bonus. They're doing you a favour, not duping you.

Def agree, on booking SFO-OZ/NZ moving forward.

with this A380 fiasco, my SFO-SYD equipment seems to have changed 
no longer a PE seat 39B as i was originally assigned. Changed to 48G. I guess change of aircraft.
Hoping to snag an Exit row seat upon check-in. What luck if any, any one has had to get those seats upon check-in rather than paying for them. I am a AA PLT/O W Sapphire.
EDIT: This is for flying this Wed, Nov 10th on QF 74. Appreciate any help with how can i increase my chances of getting the Exit Row seats, or maybe even PE. Hoping that some of the stranded pax lax get routed through SFO and maybe elite FF's get op-ups

RE: Wed.. Very strange I just booked this flight in PE. (Was trying to get todays flight but it sold out) The PE rows are 34-37.. Seems to me that all of F and J seats go to J class I guess. This is a shame! ANZ PE was half the price too

.Be nice to meet up at the airport/lounge since we are on the same flight.
