I would say 18a 18c 19a and 19c or somewhere on the upper deck for the LGW fleet.

Hi Longy1912
I'll second the rows 18 & 19 especially if flying into the US for a quick dash off to race to immigration.
Otherwise bubble if no mobility issues
Enjoy your flights & remember your TRs y)

My personal preference would be 24A&C and 24H&K. Much quieter up in the bubble.

Avoid the upper deck now on the LGW 747's, there's nothing premium about Premium up there any more now economy is also up there. Premium has just become an extension to economy on the upper deck now.

I agree with roxy & daff, we did both last year on the LGW 747 & they were great, enjoy. Sorry but can't comment on the LHR 747.

On LHR 747, we prefer 32 or 33 A/C or H/K - rows 34 onward have awkwardly placed windows.

18 H&K? Aren't those right in front of the LAV? Not sure I would want to smell that after a few hours and the constant flow of people.

No, all seats in all cabins on all VS long haul aircraft fully recline.

Did not bother us on our return a few days back - yes you can here the flush, but did not notice odour.
As an aside, I have noticed on flights that are 60 days ahead, 19 A & C and 18 H & K seem to be the first to be booked ):

Go to agree with Mitchja, for me Upper deck in PE has lost it's appeal - before the refurb it had that air of exclusivity, now as he said it just feels like an extenion of Y. v(
For me its 18 or 19 a/c.
