No advice, but just a note that it could be worse. My itinerary back from Warsaw to DC last year looked like:
Day 1: WAW-CDG
Day 1: CDG-AMS
<16 hour layover>
Day 2: AMS-JFK
Day 2: JFK-DCA
This was on an award ticket travel. I didn't mind so much as it was hard to get even this, with capacity controls being what they were.
