British Airways B747-400 Mid J Club World
09/05/12 | New topic created

My flight outbound to the West Coast was generally fine - the food has definitely improved with the 'Height Cusine' innovations, but the service was not what I would call customer-centric. As I usually sit in 62K on the Upper Deck, one faces...

Experiences of the B747 jumbo
21/02/12 | Forum post in reply to BusinessTraveller

Objectively, one has to say the A380 is a superior aeroplane in every respect - but the travel experience is much more than than just that. It's why a great member of cabin crew can literally transform your journey, or why tiny touches can make...

Recently flew BA and read the new-style menu with anticipation, having seen the Heston Blumenthal TV show and read about what BA were proposing. It all sounded just great - lots of talk of umami, the eureka moment in the TV show, as I...

New Food for Club World

Does anybody know if or when BA are introducing new catering offerings in Club World? I know the Heston Blumenthal programme achieved whatever it achieved, but is this being followed up by a genuine revamp? I seem to recall reading that it was.

Insurance a great idea - I often wondered what would happen if the unthinkable happened, say in the States. I guess get out your credit card. And love to know if that insurance the airlines try and push on you is worth it at all. Maybe...
