seat guru usually gives quite a good overview, which seats to avoid and which have some extras
the seats in the rear of the plane are certainly the worst
the best for me are the bulkhead seats in both compartments, providing more leg room. Proximity to galley and lavatories is not such an issue for me...

Hello, sorry I don't know how to perform a search on this specific thread so apologies if info is already here somewhere.
Row 4 on a 777 lx180/181
Bulkhead seats J & K
Do these have better space for your feet than other rows?
Unable to select the centre pairs in the mini cabin so have opted for 4j&k for now.
Not flown LX business class before so not sure what to expect with the leg room (though reviews seem mostly middling).

Thanks.

Theae seats have wide spaces for your feet unlike most of the coffins thrones. The aisle seat is open to the aisle with only a narrow armrest in between that you can lower to gain more space when the seat is flat. As there is little to no traffic there (at night time), I’d be happy with those seats for a couple.

OTOH, unless you have cartoonishly large feet, the throne seats will give you a lot more privacy, no chance of sitting next to a stranger.

Thanks, but I need two seats. Thrones don't come into it for me.
Sounds like row 4 bulkhead seats have best footspace.

Thanks

My wife and I just flew in 4K, 4J (777-300ER) and thought the seats were great, especially since I like a window. Plenty of footspace. We have 4K, 4J for our return and will not be looking to change them.

Thank you. Exactly what I was hoping to hear.
What was your destination BTW?

Hello, Move the thread if not in the right place. I'm found 2 Swiss business class from JFK to ZRH using Avianca Lifemiles. My question is, How would I go about seat selection once book. Is it through Swiss loyalty Or Avianca Lifemiles?

Thanks, appreciate this. Super helpful. Seatguru doesn't really have a consensus on those back seats, so I really appreciate your views on them!
