Aft galley and aft toilet

I still maintain that the aft galley is a big mistake.

Passengers must transit galley to get to toilet.

Is this desirable.

As mentioned before forward galley enable crew to have hot food, on a 15 hour flight...... at the mercy of sleeping passengers.

If aft divan converted to bed, then CC is stuck in Galley, (even with heated floor ) and FD might have use of the Mini Galley up front, ie Mapco, chiller draw, and the pocket toilet.

As an aside, always specify the " optional" knee hold for the toilets. if over 5ft 10, they are essential for the gentlemen.

Re the Crew rest area approval, I would agree that the aft galley is better, but does not solve the flight deck noise / chatter.
