    Am i the only one who finds that many details are not up to par with first class? The underside of the fabric of the footrest of his first class seat torn on the right, the cramped toilet, fingerprints and dirt everywhere (seat monitor, cockpit window, dirt on the electrical sockets in the small storage area), some elements of the meal ("dauphine potatoes", softness of the roll, etc.).

    That "first class" was not worth $17000. With the cabin being in a 1-2-1 configuration, that doesn't even feel like a true first class. Honestly it just looked like a good business class and should have been priced at $5000. Can you call BA and ask for you $12000 back?

    That lump of 'coal' 😂 is called a Yorkshire pudding which is usually included in roast beef or any sunday roast in England. It's just a big lump of batter made of eggs, flour, and milk and baked in the oven. The 'finger' is what the Brits call pigs in blankets, which is just a small type of sausage wrapped in bacon and cooked in the oven.

    I have to say that most of the food you had on this flight did not look that great. I noted that some of the upholstery in your seating area was torn and everything is looking very dated and in need of upgrade. The tv screen look filthy, as for the toilet in on a first class flight , grim! Thankfully they are retro fitting the A380 buy the end of 2025 or early 2026. Until then, I think I will be avoiding BA . I love your videos .

I'm old enough to remember BOAC in the days when long distance flying took days - four from London to Singapore. Absolutely pristine and perfect service all the way. Basically - the plane in this video was filthy and uncared for. Let's hope the engines get top priority!

But a few years ago they cleaned it up, now it's safe(-r?), still with excellent food. Also the famous, and crowded, and more expensive, La Taqueria. You did fine.
    There is a regular farmer's market at the Ferry Building a few times a week. Good local food there.

    The green sauce with your burrito was of course 'salsa de guacamole' 😋

    Next time if you travel to the Bay Area please try Fentons Creamery at Piedmont!

    You should travel to Chicago if you can sometime!! It's very diverse here with lots to experience! We can even show you the savory cake that we call Chicago deep dish pizza 😂

    for SoloSoloTravel, the concorde you saw is G-BOAB, the last concorde at Heathrow. It has been staying there since 2000 and is at a bad state where rats and other small animals are destroying the interior. Hope this helps

    You should travel to Mexico, specifically visit Chichen Itza, which is one of the 7 wonders of the modern world.
