QF A380 premium economy question

Hi everyone,
quick question
Im traveling on the A380 premium economy later this year, and am wondering which seat in the cabin is the best to request. (Exit row, bulkhead etc.)

Any help is much appreciated

Have a look here at Seat Guru

Due to the aircraft being new to service, the info doesn't appear to be as comprehensive as the other fleets..

There is a great premium economy row at an upper deck exit, has about 1-2m of leg room.

38 J/K is right in front of the galley and could be noisy.

I'd go for row 34 which is a bulk head row behind the business cabin. Much less foot traffic passing you during the service and less passengers passing you to go to the toilets (and the main deck stair case) which are both behind you.

Further, passengers tend to linger around the exit doors on long hauls because the get bored and like to do their stretching. If you're sitting at U3R you could find a little W class "social club" forming around you

went for a wander through Premium Y the other day - certainly much better on the 380 than the 747.
