I can update this in April when weve got a flight UuA from ORY on the new JFK route. We chose this option as were flying MAN - LHR - CDG for 3 days then we need to get to NYC so rather than CDG/ORY - LHR - JFK and the route opens the day before we travel we thought we would give it a try. Never flown from ORY before....Mrs C is obssesed with laudree macaroons so that swung it for her.........we thought it might be a change so since weve flown CW im not expecting it to be the same "type" of product i have read numerous reviews of the level of service being more one to one as the number of seats is far less.

Weve got the Biz Bed which i know is the old CW style but since the cabin has been updated, the planes arent that old it cant be that bad..... As for the ipad's not sure if there are charging points on board?

If all else fails we specifically booked CW from JFK on the sleeper service as a) we didnt want to return via paris and b) if it is bad (hopefully not) at least both journeys wont be overshadowed

Another issue that swung it for us was the lack of availability from LHR - JFK on the dates we wanted....it would have meant flying back from CDG - LHR - MAN so 3 days later we could fly MAN - LHR - JFK......
