British airways really need to think about getting a complete makeover. We are shockingly behind most other major airlines.
Well, I have flown Business Class in a lot of different airlines, and I do like your national carrier a lot (except for the poor food).
lol
I recently went on a school trip to Iceland. We had to get a coach down to Heathrow (from Manchester). We flew to Keflavik on a BA A320. The flight was great but, like you say, the food was poor. Although we did fly in Economy, I would have expected something better but obviously not first class standard.
like honestly, American airlin companies which are disgusting have better business and first class acomodations due to the new birds coming in! Also they know how to make steak right
Its not as bad as United airlines lol,
i’ve never liked the business class layout of BA…sitting backwards on a flight and looking into someone’s face..lol..love your channel..your videos are so engaging..awesome dude..
Thank you for kind comment, bro :)
yup yup…love your channel
On the contrary, I think BA's design could really work if they can make a way for the person in the window to avoid stepping over the person in the aisle. You could still keep the same layout, just give a little bit less room for those in the aisle so that those in the middle can squeeze through.
Depends. If you are travelling with a friend or partner it works really well I think. Facing each other works better than sitting next to each other. If you are travelling alone and have a stranger opposite then not ideal but that’s where the privacy divider comes into play.
I'm a pilot and loving this! I'm drooling over this aircraft! I've been to the Tokyo airport when I flew from Seattle a few years ago.
Cool. What aircraft type do you fly?
I flew BA to Bangkok earlier this year in Business Class.It was unbelievably awful. I could not believe that during the night, if you had middle seat, you had to climb over another flat bed and risk waking a sleeping passenger to access the aisle. It’s acceptable in economy or premium economy, but not in Business Class. The televisions are really small, not what you would expect in C class and, the food was the usual chicken beef or veggie. It might be the worlds favourite airline, but not mine.
I think the same. I had flown many others business classes and all them betters.
BA is a cheap and poor service airline, don’t expect anything :)
BA is NOT the world's favourite airline.
The hot towel looks just like an underwear!🤣
BA has great planes, great service and livery and beautiful lounges, however they need some brand new first class and business class hard ware.
Backward facing seats ? No No NO Who thought this up? Has he/she been sacked?
Thank you for the amazing video . Always look forward to your upcoming ones :)
You're welcome :)
I find it very sad when I read the comments posted, all people seem to do is complain. Both sets of my grandparents never even had a holiday let alone flew in a plane. I always fly business and have always been treated with total respect. I have nerve damage in my legs and feet due to chemo which I mention when checking in. I get a lot of cramp and need to move quickly. my last flight home from Johannesburg last month I was given an outside seat near the galley. It was absolutely fine and it is a great help to me to be able to put my legs up and lay flat so I can rest.
The lounge in Johannesburg was very nice, the food was good and I even had a shower which was great as we had been on the road since 6am.
I consider my self very lucky to be born when I was was and am able to travel to so many wonderful places in the world.
So look at the positive not the negative and remember you don't know what will happen tomorrow, life is very short.
Thank you for virture signalling. When a Business Class ticket for long haul can cost upwards of $15K one has a right to expect certain standards.
I love these type of videos
We're still in europe.. were just not in the EU Union
nah mate, we're an island race and proud of it.
Iceland are an island nation and they are very proud of who they are. I think that we should take some inspiration from Norway. They've not been in the EU for ages and look how good they're doing. They're one of the most developed countries on Earth. We should keep England's Norse/Viking heritage in mind. We could learn a lot.....
Bear in mind Norway do have a special deal with the EU
True.
Norway are practically still In the Eu
i think british airways needs a new buusiness class
They have one now.
I dont mean to be so off topic but does anybody know of a method to get back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Diego Aarav Instablaster :)
@Cory Pierce thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Cory Pierce it worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass!
Stunning takeoff and views!!
Britain will still be in Europe just not the EU!!!!!!!
Love your vids! Thanks for sharing em :)
you're welcome!
There is a difference between "Europe" and the "European Union". Everybody knows that.
Another great video, thank you for posting, always enjoyable. A shame even with the upgraded seats, I never enjoy the BA club world seats.
I was just on a B777-300ER yesterday!
In coach though, amirite?
You have some brilliant videos. Thank you for sharing them.
Thx, Michael, for your great comment
I do love BA but on my recent Club World flight to and from Tokyo the food was shockingly poor and the service very rushed. Such a shame that they are cutting so many corners now in all their cabins.
Love these Aviation videos
Great Video , thanks for sharing .
Question at 16:28
Flight Paths change because of several factors, including Wind speed/direction, weather and overflight fees (the tax an airline pays to overfly a country that is neither the origin nor the destination of the flight)
Yes, and more than one track can result in the same equivalent still air distance. The flight times of the BA 777 and JAL 777 flights (on same day) are very close, while tracks somewhat different...at least on the couple of days I looked at.
Many thanks and kudos on another stellar trip report. You have truly set the standard for quality reviews.
wow, I guess that's the best compliment someone gave me so far. Thx a lot!
awesome as always
The layout is ridiculous. Why are you supposed to sit like a cabin crew ? Facing opposite direction?
Really enjoyed the ride along. Especially the great pics as you were climbing out. Keep up the good work.
Thank you, John, for your very kind comment
Great video! I note that BA have just upgraded NRT-LHR (BA6) to 787-9s so I'd be curious to know if you'd consider swapping airports to NRT (an inconvenience if you've flown into HND) to get the newer aircraft? I was fortunate enough to get the 789 on its second day on the BA6 route and they're a beautiful aircraft. My nose gets quite dry when I fly and after 12hrs in the 789 I felt fine, unlike yesterday when after about 7hrs in a 772 my nose felt red raw!
To the best of my knowledge, British Airways now also operates a B787-9 on the LHR-HND route. And I completely agree, I feel less tired as well after traveling in the Dreamliner. It's a wonderful aircraft ...
Oh I didn't realise that. It makes sense to start phasing out the tired old 777s.
+The Frequent Flyer I've watched you before!
Thank you for the video.
I love flight reports but yours are SO cool ! +1 like and sub
thanks for your like and subscription!
Amazing videos thank you
Thank you so much for the Amazing Video it was absolutely amazing I wish I could travel as much as you
thank you for your very kind comment!
GREAT review mate. Best one yet. I'm flying business class from London to San Jose in 3 days on a 787-9. Loved the tour of the suite. Thanks and keep up the good work
Thank you, bro :). Enjoy your flight and safe travels!
+the Luxury Travel Expert thanks
Do you (or FA) have to lower the divider every time you are getting drink/food?
And a passenger sits on the aisle seat always see FA serve window passenger over him?
Came to a conclusion that never to watch a video of your's with empty stomach ha ha ha.... As always nice video with detailed info.
Thank you, Naveen, for your kind comment.
I teared up a bit at the end
really good video. Love it
Good job, buddy!
Alway love the lounges. You should keep showing all the different lounges.
I will as long as I keep traveling and flying Business/First Class
Aahhhhh I was hoping you'd order scrambled eggs. 😜 nothing like good ol English breakfast. Loved the views of Tokyo. Brings back old memories.
English breakfast with Canadian bacon, I don't think so !!
I too enjoyed your report, although I don't like the layout of business class, ("Ying and Yang" effect). The person in the aisle seat is disadvantaged by the (raised) privacy screen if he/she wants to enjoy the outside view, while the person in the window seat is disadvantaged by having to clamber over someone's legs if wanting to gain entry to the aisle. I realise that all one has to do is ask. Which seat do you prefer in business (Club Class) ? Thanks for sharing, your trip reports are always very relaxing to view, as well as being informative.
A wonderful video....thank you!
you're welcome
i thank you for this review, i like to see it. 👍🏻👏🏻😊
You can read my review here: wp.me/p4d1XU-F3q
i couldn't care less about the service, the menu, the entertainment system, the bar etc. all i care about is that beautiful leg room.
Tom Mulligan Same here. I wish they did something in between premium economy and business class. Never mind amenity kit, posh food and all that: just want to fly horizontally and arrive to my destination rested and not jet lagged.
Nice one! :)
great watch! always love to watch your videos lool the aviation geek that I am😂👏
thx
yay ! facing foward!
WOW I've been watching you since 100 subs
Thank you!!!
Awesome videos, keep it up always, I really like them
thanks, Khalid!
Great views.
Great landing.
i love your videos and i love aircrafts and i love the way you recording..... like the the engine view you let me travel with you by that awesome videos
thank you!
thanks for the video as always they are awesome. I could not flying in that seat flying facing backwards and window and looks too closed in . Isle seat for me
Love the video as always. Great views of Tokyo. What music did you play while landing ?
Silent Earth by composer Hokan Eriksson (www.epidemicsound.com)
Hi, have a Question, once you boarded the Airline, it played Aria first then 2nd in-Flight song. Was wondering what the 2nd in-flight boarding song was, What's it's name, please? Thank You. Great Video.
9:34 Hot Towel? forget about the texture, how about a real towel. That looks like a used cloth diaper.
Too good video Sir
Thats quite bad that your kind of trapped if you want to get out and youd have to wake the person next to you to get out :/
Anastacia Louise You are absolutely right. I don't know how people can fork out a lot of money to pay for such a poor business class configuration.
Man great work again! Its always a pleasure to watch your videos! I travell every year too and i would like to create a channel like yours. Thanks for making this videos and keep going :)
Thank you for your great comment. I also wanted to have my own travel blog long before I started one, so I recommend you to start one asap as it's so much fun! In fact, I started this RUclips channel to complete my travel blog (www.luxtravelexpert.com), but this channel is now more popular than my blog itself. Weird :)
Very nice video.
Thank you sir. ❤🙏❤
God bless you.
Very nice video. I will be here to travel with you to Vancouver hehehe
Thank you. See you in Vancouver :)
always enjoy watching your videos...very nice..take me next time on your travel..
Thx, Omari, for your great comment. So far, I only consider taking my loved ones on my travel trips :)
looking for the flight next year! flying from london to Tokyo with British airways business class :D
You should make a video too. Especially if you get a new plane!
hope to travel first class from CLT to Maui some day
Tokyo looked great from the air.
Yeah, the city is just massive in scale
BA were the first (I think) with lie-flat beds in Business - but that was 20 years ago and they've never updated this product - and 8 across is really unacceptable
BA will introduce a new Business Class seat next year
Why is it unacceptable? You're taking up more than twice the space of an economy class seat but you're only paying twice the tax of an economy class seat. They should increase the tax if you want more space.
@@jonblogondrong4792 let me guess your a BA fan that cant accept the truth?
For the window seat is there a way to divide you and the person next to you? Partition?
Please consider to review Garuda Indonesia First class (LHR-CGK)
What airport of Tokyo (Narita and Haneda) do you prefer? and why?
Nice. I'm flying BA business class on BA's Hong Kong A380 service in February.
Great. I published my BA A380 Business Class trip (London to Los Angeles) here: ruclips.net/video/1zVh97nE6TE/видео.html. Enjoy your Hong Kong trip!
I absolutely love your videos and do not miss out on any one of them! You have some real good reviews \m/ would you mind telling me which camera do you use to make this video? and lens, if it has?
Thank you, Rabin! The camera is use is a Canon SX710HS (without any specific lens).
There is problem On almost all BA flights in BIZ class if you want a window seat you fly backwards. Very disconcerting. So choice is 1st Class $$$$$$$$$ or premium econ.
Otherwise, service and food on BA now is equal to the best. One way to avoid flying backwards but still in BIZ class LCY- JFK on their A318.
Please do Lufthansa B748 Frankfurt - Tokyo
I've never flown on a seat facing backwards. Are you more likely to get airsick during takeoff/ascent? Doesn't inertia hit you harder during takeoff than landing?
It may look weird, but you hardly feel any difference with a forward facing seat
Then again, I noticed the "jumping over the legs" problem. For spending a lot of money, I'd expect a better cabin plan.
can I cry 😢
it must be really weird to fly backwards! How did the takeoff and landing feel?
You don't really feel the difference
So, one is either exposed in the aisle seat or forced to jump over someone's legs in the window seat? At business class prices?
PS love your vids
Thank you! Yes, that's correct. If you are seated in a backward facing seat (which I prefer, since they are located in their own cocoon), then you have to jump over another passenger's legs to reach the aisle. Not so comfortable ...
Don't forget that the tax part of your fair is being subsidised by economy pasengers. The tax is double but the seat takes up more than double the space of an economy seat.
They change their path slightly to avoid winds from altitudes or other planes (yes the wind from the other planes) aka: turbulence
Have you any plans to make TRIP REPORT from LOT Polish Airlines?
Awesome video like all before. May be one day you will come to the Indian Ocean visit Reunion island and Mauritius?
I have visited Mauritius twice. One time I stayed at the Four Seasons, the other time at the St Regis. Unfortunately, I visited the island before I launched my travel blog. I should bring another visit soon :)
The seat layout is a bit wankery. What bloody hell?! Love your videos, very relaxing
Your channel is awesome!
Thank you for your kind comment!
+the Luxury Travel Expert yeah best Chanel on RUclips
Fantastic video as always! But oh what a horrible layout BA have...i just can't bring myself to fly with them when there are far superior and cheaper Business class options available
The Sakura Lounge which services all international flights is disappointing. Horrible food and beverages, but better than the regular corral area. But now I have an idea on whether to go business on my next trip to London.
@the Luxury Travel Expert , with out going in to detail. may i ask what kinda of business your in
medicine
Nice fid like watching them :)
Vid*
The club kitchen snack selection is so much better here than it is now ( just chips, lindts, and soda)
Awesome video, keep it up
Plus how do you go on so many flights every week, do you even stay home? Lol
Thanks for your great comment. I travel around 8 weeks a year, but I upload my travel clips on a more regular base (one per week). I definitely don't fly every week. I even like it to be at home! :)
just came back from the airport to watch my favorite you tuber in aviation
well thank you! Where did your travels take you?
+the Luxury Travel Expert just came back from ohare in Chicago and there I saw a very cool star wars ANA plane with BB8 on it and much more!!!!keep up the awesome work and happy travels!!!!!
How many hours was this flight ?
What is that mo you used at the start?
So out of curiosity you travel a lot because you work with medicine type stuff or just for vacation
The seating arrangement is pretty awkward...
I think I'd feel a bit claustrophobic in that seat!
What was the answer about the flight route?
Great one !
sir, what is the song on the last part of the video ? thanks
Silent Earth by composer Hokan Eriksson (www.epidemicsound.com)
thanks
Nice vid! What's the tune playing in the beginning?

LOVELY
