tested the April flights on different dates and found VS42 and VS41 are on an Airbus A340-300; VS19 is on a Boeing 747-400; VS20 is on a Boeing 747-400. Whichever dates I go with, I'll pick the 42/41 set because the times are better.

Yes, I fly economy and I use YAPTA to monitor pricing and often check it a couple of times a day.
