Thanks so much for all the guidance! Hopefully they will have changed the movies on the Encore system since the last time I flew an A330 (January as I've been doing the FLL thing recently). Despite everything negative people say about the service reductions, it is true that the US A330 is the most comfortable plane I've been on between the excellent seats and the fantastic IFE's when they are updated!

Are they still doing Kinkeads crab cakes? Thats fantastic, Kinkeads is about 3 blocks from my wife's apartment in DC and we go there for special occasions. I do hope I get the upgrade as I'll enjoy this on the flight out.

I thought of a few more questions regarding using this upgrade cert. Should I check-in online tonight or just check in tommorow? Do I present the cert at the ticket counter or at the gate, or if I go to the club at DCA can I take care of this there? The cert is a space available transatlantic DS0087.

As for driving in London, fortunately I won't have to do it, but if I did I'm already fine with the left hand side thing as thats where we drive in STX! The wheel being on the otherside might be a bit odd though.

Thanks again!

Sean
