I realise that but assume that since bulkhead seats have extra room they would be reserved for passengers with specific needs which may mean they couldn’t negotiate the tight stairs of the upper deck. I accept I may be wrong however I would think if you could manage those stairs you wouldn’t need to be allocated those seats by the airline.

Just to add, if there is a chance those seats would be taken from us and assigned to someone else I’d rather make the decision now to move than risk being separated or in a row that doesn’t suit us.

No allocation whatsoever, I reserved them when I booked our tickets, as they were open for anyone to book.

Yes but presumably since all the other bulkhead rows are greyed out for booking that there are passengers that will be assigned those by the airline. If there’s the same risk for row 20 I’d prefer to know now and change them to less risky seats.

20A and C are fine. You can book them now and be as secure as anyone can be that you'll still have those seats (like all seats, check-in staff may need to move people around). They are not ones that are blocked out unlike 20H and K (which have a bassinet in front of them).

Any seat request, is just that, a request, you can be moved for operational reasons from any seat.

Thanks, that’s helpful.

Yes, I realise that but obviously some seats you’re more likely to get moved from than others. I suppose I’m just looking for experiences of those seats and getting moved.
