Is my order specifically packaged up and loaded on the outbound, or is it just picked from the onboard stock on my flight ?
What happens if there's some sort of IRROPS affecting my plane, or me changing my flight ?
When do I get the Avios ? I've prepaid, so now, or after collection ?
any experiences ?
Based on what happened to me when I did the same on a BOM-LHR flight in Jan 14: the item is packaged in a separate bag with barcode and loaded into the Duty Free trolleys in LHR for the round trip. On your flight ask the crew post-meal and hopefully someone (the system was relatively new then and the crew on my flight weren't sure/it was the 1st time they had done it) will know where on the trolley it is located.
Show your printed confirmation, sign and the package is yours.
