Avoid if possible
Constantly disturbed by passenger and crew moving in and out of the rear bar and galley . No service really .. had to ask for everything and didn’t even get an option to have a dessert of coffee
Great seat same as 51G
Excellent seat, aisle seat of a group of 4, no limited recline. No row of 3 beside you because you're on an exit row. No one behind you but an amazing large space to stand and stretch. Yes, sometimes people do stand behind there. Being in the front section feels like an upgraded economy because of the amount of washrooms in this section and the large galley separation between you and the rest of economy.

AVOID-A-SEAT
I had the pleasure of riding an emirates a380 to Dubai for my Thanksgiving holiday. I paid for an upgrade to business class going but coming home was stuck in my standard economy seat because premium economy on the flight was booked up. This was thee worst seat next to an Alaskan flight I took some years ago. Like it says the armrest doesn't move and the seat is extremely narrow. There is no seat in front of you so no under seat stow where you could have a bag to use as a foot stool to raise your feet a little, and even though you have the legroom - you don’t really have the legroom because the attendant seats are directly across from you and they use the space to crossover and tend to the passenger in the row behind you because the space on the right of the 2 seats is empty . Even though the seat next to me was empty I couldn’t take advantage of. It because the armrests did not move. 14 hours in that seat was extremely difficult and felt like 28hrs. I could not wait to get off of that plane.. especially after experiencing business class going on the 380.. COMPLETE OPPOSITE
emirates is a good international airline. the seat was comfortable, legroom was amazing that I had to record it!! great view from window seat!!
It was a good seat an a massive wing view when I flew from Perth to Dubai in august this year.
Very good for non-exit row
The aisle widens here, space opens up, and the direct access to the aisle means you have plenty of space to stretch legs. I feel 44C would be an even better seat for a solo traveller, and if you get 44B empty next to you, then you should savour the experience. However, 45C is pretty damm good and very comfortable. As with most economy seats, lumbar support is poor, but otherwise the seat is fine, and big enough for sensible frames. Sleeping in this seat, as with most, will be challenging at best and impossible at worst. Working is not easy with the relatively limited tray table, so that small wifi allowance will go to waste for your laptop, since anything over 12 inches will struggle to fit. I barely got a 13 inch Asus Zenbook onto the table, and the recline of the seat in front was a serious concern the entire time.
Good and bad, but overall an ok seat, near the galley.
If you can, find another seat... may have limited recline; near the galley.
Better than most - has extra legroom; no under seat stowage during takeoff and landing; traytable in armrest means narrower seat.
Recommend this seat over others, has extra legroom; no underseat stowage; traytable in armrest means narrower seat; armrests do not move.

Might want to skip this one if you can, may have limited recline; near the galley.
I've sat in better, may have limited recline.
Avoid this seat if you can... may have limited recline; near the lavatory.
Don't sit here if you don't have to, may have limited recline; near the lavatory.
