The flight to Madrid from PHL is on an A330, will that plane have personal seat back televisions? Im traveling with someone who isnt the greatest flyer, so any entertainment like that would be awesome. Also is the meal service anything worth eating, or should i just stock up at PHL?

thanks in advance!
If you are not worried about earning miles, I wouldn't fly a American carrier to Europe. Fly a European one - British Airways, Air France, Swiss or SAS come to mind. LH is uncomfortable in coach. But even Iberia (which flies non-stop from JFK) is better than US.
