Been through that once in a part of the world where the aircraft were all on an airway corridor. After that, I would take a look at the current wind arrow. If it is straight forward or behind, then consider flying offset.
"C-GOIR, an Airbus A321neo operated by Air Transat was conducting a flight from Manchester International Airport (EGCC), UK, to Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International Airport (CYYZ) ON. During cruise, the aircraft experienced wake turbulence from an opposite direction Airbus A380, 1000 feet above. Two cabin crew members sustained minor injuries and one of these members was considered incapacitated and unable to perform their duties. First aid was provided, and the flight continued to the destination without further incident."
