It’s been 8 years since I last flew BA. Looks like nothings changed.

Here's the rub though... This fall, I need to get to the Caribbean from Dubai for a family function, and wouldn't ya know it, BA has the most direct routing from DXB, with a change at LHR, not LGW, which is a pretty big plus. Out of and into DXB is an A380 route, another plus, but from LHR down to the islands are on their ancient 772s. First world problems, I know.

lol. The new Club Suite is great but yes, these Biz seats are ancient and need to vanish.

Last flew on the A380 to San Francisco Business Class back in 2017, doing it again next year. Was hoping they've refreshed things a little.

The BA business class lounge in LAX looks very nice, great food and champagne, also does the food and drinks on board . With the new Club Suites in the A380 BA will have a great product for transatlantic flights.

Regarding the “herringbone” front-facing plus rear-facing configuration, one thing that befuddles me is how the window-side person accesses the aisle while your lie flat seat is fully extended while you sleep.
@travelingfoody Жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching! The person sitting in the window will have to “hop” over the other seat’s ottoman to access the aisle, which is awful.

@@travelingfoody You’re very welcome. Thumbs up for your quick reply - but your helpful insight strikes me as a lose-lose regardless of which seat 💺 one chooses.

According to my BA reservation in late September I will be flying from SFO to London in a 777-300er with the new Club World seats in a 1-2-1 configuration.

Great video again, thanks for posting! Actually, since you too are OW expert, have you noticed that there are no available AA operated BA codeshare flights bookable after March 30th 2024? Same on Iberia and RJ, nothing available... weird. Any ideas?
@travelingfoody Жыл бұрын
Thanks so much for watching! Perhaps the BA/AA/IB codeshare agreements are route and market dependent. I just checked and was able to find codeshare flights beyond March 30, 2024.

@@travelingfoody I just checked again, weirdly still not... For example, you can't book LHR-CHS (with the CHS segment on AA connected domestic flights from ORD/DFW/MIA) after March 30th, while plenty of options on or before 3/30.. Also there are none of AA operated BA code flights such as LHR-LAX/JFK or the domestic connection JFK-LAX/SFO for example, after March 30th

I am flying business from SFO to LHR in November, but will be on Boeing-777, do you know if it's any better than A380?
@travelingfoody Жыл бұрын
Business Class on the 777 should be better if it’s the retrofitted 1-2-1 seats. Thanks for watching!

Not one positive comment, I’m not sure why? The food looked good. Are they still using Doe & Co for catering? Thank you for the trip report ❤️✈️

It’s probably because of the old uncomfortable seats. The food was actually decent though. Thanks for watching!

The seat design looks terrible, not respecful for a businessman as other normal 1-2-1 design. I will never choose a flight with this seat.
