Just looking for a couple opinions to make an informed selection.

Thanks!
The lavs are not directly in front of you, there is small closet then the door then the lav (IIRC there is only one). It should be reasonably free of flushing noise not only because of the distance but it is also only used buy first class and crew.

The galley only serves first class (and the cockpit). Business class is served from the mid-cabin galley. It's a mixed bag as to where the crew will hang out, but that could be a bit noisy depending on the crew. Since the crew rest is near the business class galley, I'd expect them to hangout around there, but (IME) it's really crew dependent.

If you're concerned about noise why not take a seat in row 2 as its further from the galley and lav.

Oh, 1K without a doubt. Most private corner of the plane. 2K is the pilot crew rest, you won't be bothered by anyone. Take that one!

Seatguru is invariably out of date and is not a reliable source of information.

1K is the most private GF seat in the entire UA fleet. Hell, it's the best seat in the whole UA fleet.

2A and 2K are blocked/taken (as noticed by a previous poster). It looks like the consensus is 1K.

Because some people work on flights and don't like having to get up every time I need something. There's no space to accommodate more than a laptop. No space for a notebook, files, etc. It's akin to having a remote vs. not having one and having to get up to change the channel.

On UA's 777s and 747s (unless you're in a window seat on the upper deck), it's even worse. I book my tickets last minute, which means when booking United (which I no longer do for international flights) I invariably get middle seats. So not only was there inadequate storage, but I had to disturb someone to get to the overhead compartment.

If you're paying $7-$9k for a seat, the seat should have storage. Even United's 7-abreast business class had more storage than what's currently available.

If the seat isn't between Row 1 and 8, take another flight

New 767-300 UAL International Exit Row 20A Seat

Seat Guru shows that 20A does not recline. Why would the second row of exit seats not recline? Anyone have any experience on 767-300 ORD-LHR Seat 20A on United?
