Deplaning a 747 LHR Config

Can anyone please tell me which exit is used to deplane from PE on the 747 LHR configuration? Is it the exit directly behind PE or the exit directly in front of PE or both or is it another exit? Oh and by the way this would be at MCO. Thanks.

At MCO door 2 is used. This is at the front of PE on the LHR fleet and behind PE on the LGW fleet. (At the bottom of the stairs to the upper deck)

has there been a swap of aircraft? LHR config not normally on the MCO route normally is a LGW config 1

It seems quite a few seat maps for later in the year are showing LHR config rather than LGW config. I know mine are. Aircraft maintenance perhaps?

Just off general discussion on here buddy. There's a few posts on the forum where people mention at T60 their seat map shows a LHR 744 rather the expected LGW counterpart. Not sure there's anywhere to physically check though...?

It's always subject to change of course.
