I was able to select Rows 11 on my A350 flights last Oct. SIN-SFO-SIN as well as SIN-IAH-SIN last month but these were (redemption) bookings made in early 2017.
However for my next flight to IAH in Feb. 2019, all rows 11 & 19 seats have been blocked.

The policy was quietly introduced around April / May 2017.

I called last week to see if they could assign me row 11 of 19. Row 11 for my flight was already full he said (I doubt it, since the flight is for Feb 2019), but row 19 was still available. I'm no PPS member, but he still gave me row 10 without any hassle. Might be lucky though.

I will be travelling on SQ860 from SIN-HKG next month. I was able to select Row 11 but my travel companion (who is non PPS, on award booking) was not able to do so. I called SIA SG hotline and was told that this is being assigned on best effort basis for us to be seated together in Row 11, but there is no guarantee. Any idea on how we can preselect Row 11? We prefer to be seated towards front of plane as rest of the available seats are near the gallery or Premium Econ only. Thanks.

I was able to book row 11 a few weeks ago, redeeming via VA rewards. Must be my lucky day.

Yes/No. All bulkhead is good, ottoman is a little longer at middle seats.
If travelling solo, go for window.
