SevensDelta ATL - JNB comfort plus bulkhead
For those that have flown Delta ATL - JNB recently, can anyone comment on which of the bulkhead seats in comfort plus are preferable (row 29)?
Seatguru says 29DEF has restricted leg room, but the comments are saying it's just as good as 29ABC and 29GHJ. Trying to optimize my leg room, which suggests 29C or G, but those two also seem to get hit by the cart due to the transition from Business to coach.
Input and experience would be appreciated. I'm 6'2", so leg room is important!

Opus1Row 29 A, B, C or G, H, I are the best. Seats D, E, F have a little less legroom. But the best seats are either 44 A or 44 I as they are the emergency row seats and you can save a few bucks...

Heeler75I flew the Delta ATL - JNB route just this past August. Going over I had 30C. Coming back, I had 29A. In the future, I'll take the window bulkhead seat if I can get it.
I'm also 6'2, and dang near could fully extend my legs to the bulkhead. And there was enough room that if I needed to get out I didn't disturb the folks next to me. For me, it was more than enough leg room for a long ass boring flight.

Dak41629C and 29G stick into the isle some and traffic bumps into you. 29DEF may have a little less legroom but not enough to notice.
29ABHI are good

Gundog 64Wife and I had 29 A&B in Sept. I'm 6' 1" and found the seats ok. 29 C as stated earlier does stick into the aisle a bit and the lady that was sitting there did get bumped by the cart a few times. I would also take an 18" x 18" piece of memory foam for the next trip, seats seemed kind of hard to me.

Heym 450/40029J
Window seat/bulkhead...I take my backpack down and use it as a leg rest for the whole flight. I'm 6'3" and can basically extend my legs all the way out like I'm sitting in a recliner. Plus I have access to whatever I want in my carry on without having to get up and down.
visual aids help...waiting to take off and get my pack down. You can see even at my height I have plenty of leg room.

Bigfoot1961Does row 29 bulkhead also have the movie screen. Wasn't sure how that was handled without a seat in front of you.

JGRaiderIt flips up out of the arm rest.
