I have the utmost respect for BA. My mother passed away recently, and I needed to get home quickly from the US to the UK; I called, and they immediately put me through to a different department, and my flight was adjusted without any costs or qualms. Thank you, BA, I had the privilege of going 1st once, and I agree the staff are excellent; PS You can ask for sides with your main course. 😊 I didn’t have breakfast but used the arrivals lounge, which has a first-class area; it was up there for the arrival's facility.

Always been met with rude, surly staff who appear to hate their jobs on BA. Luck of the draw eh? I have also observed that their standards have dropped over the years compared to offerings from Ethiad and Qatar. They don't seem to have made much of an effort to at least equal those carriers. Shame.

I also flew 1st to and from Chicago earlier this year. The upgrade from Business was a a crazy amount, a few hundred each way and I thought why not. As I went into the lounge coming home Harrison Ford walked out and we bumped into each other, I was so star-struck I just stood there in amazement! I enjoyed the flight, the service was ‘1st Class’ and the food on the aircraft was lovely. If the deal is right I’ll upgrade again, not sure I could spend the money to fly up front at normal flight costs!

Did it last year to Atlanta and that was from Terminal 3 at Heathrow, this time we are from Terminal 5 so can use the Concorde lounge before flying out to Boston. I paid approximately £1800 for two return tickets using my Avios points, basically you just pay the tax on the flight. I feel very lucky to be able to experience these things.

I got a free upgrade from business class to first class on BA last summer flying back from Seattle to Heathrow. My seat was a slightly newer version than yours (on a 787) and it felt a bit more private. I agree with you about the food - it was ok but not great. It was a nice experience to have for free, but for me I wouldn’t pay the premium over a decent business class

it’s all about the plane you’re on in this transitional period! As you have (personally) A350 club that’s cheaper than 787 older first, yet bc it’s updated it’s almost as good, even has a door.

It was an amazing with the service and upgraded meal service.

You have to go to Mackinaw City, take the ferry to the island. About $15. per person, one way. There is a wonderful movie, Somewhere In Time. With Jane Seymour & Christopher Reeve. The movie was filmed on Mackinac Island at The Grand Hotel that hosts a Somewhere in Time Weekend at the end of October every year. Things that set the island apart - No cars are allowed on the island Most of the houses were built in the 1800s Mackinac Island is famous for their fudge To get around on the island people use horses or bicycles or on foot A Mackinac Island taxi is a horse drawn carriage The number of reservations at The Grand Hotel for the Somewhere in Time weekend often sell out. I bought my tickets in February for my stay in October. It was a marvelous, magical time.

My paternal cousin got her ‘dream job’ at 18 with BA based out of Birmingham so 1974. After a few years she moved to London and worked out of Heathrow on long haul. She ❤ it and in the 80’s she would get all sorts of perks and the pension was amazing By 1991 she was married and had a baby. She took time off She went back in the 00’s as ground staff at terminal 5 When Covid came in 2020 she was made redundant - she was one of 12,000 She does not fly BA now It’s gone down the pan ❤️❤️🏴🏴🤨🤨🤨🥴🥴 By t

I recognised Chicago airport from Home Alone 2 when Kevin’s running after his dad and follows the wrong one where it splits off. Great vid Tim, as always. Enjoy your first Christmas in your new home. ❣️

Tim - random fact...you flew out of the same airport that was used in the film Home Alone. Chicago airport was where the McCallisters ran to catch the plane to go to Paris for Christmas 😊
