Just a quick opinion seeking question.

For those that have travelled on VX, which row of seats do you prefer? 1 or 2?

Cheers in advance.

I always sit in 1A just because I can.

I prefer row 2. Feels a bit more spacious and can recline without concern

I like row 2, feels more spacious without the purple screen in front of you

Thanks everyone for your opinions - I think the general concensus on here, and on other sites, is that row 2 is probably best.

Agreed .. row 2 for all the reasons above

Much prefer row 1 and 1A when I can get it.

No one to recline into you.

Mind you, if you're 6' or more I'd agree row 2 is better since there's no hard partition in front of your feet.

Row 1 because nobody reclines into your space.

Seats are very comfortable.

NB. Be aware there is no meal service on flights of less than 2hrs duration. Was a little disappointed to not be offered at least some breakfast SFO-LAX last time (but still booked 1st Class again for SFO-PSP in a few weeks time!)

Interesting, though not overly concerning as I'm on a flight from FLL to SFO in a couple of days.

Have picked row 2; only because I'd feel guilty about reclining into someone else :p

I've sat in row 2 and it really didn't bother me when the person in front reclined. There is loads of room.

Will be interesting if you could tell me about the flight after, will be doing the same route in June, in First.

This thread hasn't made my choice between row 1 or row 2 any easier... :P

That's odd, I'm sure we had some sort of snack on our LAS - SFO flight a few years ago?
The booze was flowing copiously though ): , so might be mistaken on that one.........

No mistake, it was a tapas type box (and it was very nice too). You did consume (IIRC) "several" G+Ts which might account for the memory loss though :D .
