FC preferences: Row 1 or 2
Just curious others think about which row in FC is better.
I recall a few years about being in row 1 from SFO-DUL and it great. The airline was new then... Now I'm preparing to book FC and heading to CUN from SFO. Some of the reviews online state that row 1 isn't that great since the leg extension rests against the bulkhead... Hmmm... I don't recall that... But still I wanted to see what others think as Row 2 is still available at this time...
Thanks

Also, neither row has any under-seat stowage.

My preference is row-2. To me, it is roomier than row-1. The only negative is you may not get first choice of meals, however, they have never ran out of any meal I've picked although I have ran them out of my alcohol choice twice.

Thanks... Think this time around I will go for row 2...
Did MCS exit row to/from Cabos in Oct/Nov from SFO and it was a good score for sure... This time we're off to CUN. Just wished they'd offer non-stop service everyday....

My personal preference is Row 2 aisle for daytime flights, Row 1 window for red-eyes. That way I can get at least some undisturbed sleep, but can still make it to the aisle/lavatory even if the passenger next to me is fully reclined in 1C/D.
