Like a proper fanatic of the VS site [:I] I've just checked my seats again (lost count how many times!) and my return leg from BOS has changed from a 343 to a 346. I have read the seat reviews and plumped for 7K. Is this seat really good on the 346? or should I consider elsewhere?
Many thanks
David

4 or 5K. 7K is getting too near the bassinett area for me.[:D]

11A is my choice.

I like the K side because you are not facing anyone. I'd also prefer forward as Dragon Lady suggests. 3K is my total fave.

Depends if you want to sleep etc as the front rows will be the sleep zone.
If you want to eat, drink and watch the IFE then further back would be better.
Either way, I prefer a seat that faces the wall so your not looking any any other pax.

It's mine also, but on the BOS flight it's in the snooze zone which the OP may not wish

Glad you said that, we have 10/11A for our first A346 later in the year.

I had 2 and 3 K on our trip home to Australia, which were good but you could hear the loo flushing. So a little further up would be good 4-6K or 8-11A.
Enjoy your trip.

We were advised to go for 4K / 5K by the agent when booking our Australia seats. I did n't want to hear the loo flushing either, so did not want to go further forward.

You not only hear the noise of the flush, but you also have those waiting to use said loo loitering at the foot of your ottoman if you're in 2K.

My 2p's worth:
2K's my fave seat, I can't ever recall hearing the loo being flushed, or particularly having any problem with folks hanging around waiting for it to be vacated: that was my main concern since the 346 loos started shifting over to that side of the cabin a couple of years ago.
You get an extra shelf at 2K too for all your junk.
