I have no advice of use that I can share but am glad that you could get your award on such short notice. You'll be on an A340 with PTV which is way better than the DVD players they hand out now. Also, you should be getting the new International J meal service. I have been told that the service starts on the left side of the plane (seats A+C) and then the other side. If you want to be able to eat first then choose seats on this side. Like I said, I have not experienced it but others will correct me if I am wrong.

Welcome to FT

Hope you have a great trip.
