PE seat choice on 787

Morning!

I'm about to book to go to DXB and I have seen from the booking engine that this is scheduled to be 787, it will be my first time on this type with VS. I was impressed with the Y offering from Thomson!

Looking at the trip reports, I can't see many in PE (esp on the 787) so I wondered in anyone could provide a little bit of advice....it seems that the seats at the back of the PE cabin on the 787 are a real hit but we will be flying with an infant who will be 8 months old

My dilemma is, are the bulkhead seats on the 787 better than the back row, I'm not overly bothered about having a bassinet as the flight is not overly long but will choose the bulkhead option if there is oodles more legroom on the back row - previous bulkhead experiences have bee that they are a bit cramped stretching out wise. Any advice or opinions welcome!!

Also, how do I book the bulkhead seats? Call to VS? Thanks in advance!

PE bulkhead seats are held back for those with children or disabled. They are released at time online check in opens if available

For the rest of the Premium Economy seats, the seat itself and the leg-room are all identical.

Keep an eye on your booking as pretty sure the 787 which should have been operating the route this winter is now going to be a 330 instead
