I've tried doing some searches in this forum and haven't been able to get any information on what kinds of amenities to expect.
  1. Will this route have power in Y for a laptop?
  2. What's the AVOD situation in Y?
  3. Will an amenity kit be provided?

In a related note, can LY GAs input AA frequent flyer information?

Thanks in advance for your help!
Dear Sir,
As part of our upgrading process (which began last summer with the arrival of our two 777 airplanes), we will soon commence upgrading our 744 fleet. At the end of the process, all of the 744's interior design will be identical to the new 777. The upgrade will also include replacing all seats in the prestige classes to the new bed-seats.
As for your questions:
- As part of upgrading our economy class - connections to laptops will be installed in all seats making them available for use to all passengers. At the moment, connections to laptops are available only in the prestige classes. However, you can ask the steward to show you where you can log on with your computer.
- we will also upgrade all of the entertainment systems to digital ones. We are currently running a pilot on a new entertainment system which is called VIDIBOX.
Please find out more on: http://www.elal.co.il/ELAL/Hebrew/Al...inment/VidiBox

- Comfort kits are available to all passengers traveling in the prestige classes.

Best
