Ask the crew to take a minute to show you the handsets, etc. and that will also clue them that you are on your first, first trip. Now, I made that mistake (turning left, flying first) once about 15 years ago and it's very addictive!!!! Haven't turned right since.

I am a bit worried that my wife going from never having been higher than economy on long haul straight to club suite and first will cause some issues on every other flight - next time it's a cash ticket even PE might be a hard sell!
