It was pretty beat up, screen was smaller and squarer - but overall it wasn't bad. And as other people have rightly said, F service is fine. J looked not good at all.
To be clear to the OP, the Airbus you flew was an A340-500, and this is being replaced (I assume) by an A340-300 (which does not have Suites) on this route for the winter.
