    Follow me as I take a British Airways A319, sitting down the back of the bus, on a spring evening flight back to Heathrow from Hamburg.
    A perfectly okay flight, with nothing remarkable - but nonetheless an efficient and easy way to get between Germany and Britain.
    Let me know what you think of BA's Buy On Board policy....
    I hope you like the video - don't forget to leave a comment - I do read them all!

    Nice trip report Paul! It is currently 2am here in Texas, but it was worth it to be one of the first viewers! Looking forward to the q and a video. Have a great day Paul! ✈️

    Cheers Paul. Another great report; the empty row brings back memories of a LHR-GLA flight where I was one of only two pax on a Trident III. Unbelievably they issued us with boarding cards for adjacent seats.

    I went from Hamburg to Heathrow on way home from staying with my brother & his partner in Roth near Nuremberg in July 2014. I flew from Nuremberg to Hamburg in a Air Berlin aircraft then transferred to BA (which was Air Berlin's partner at the time) at Hamburg.
    It was really a good trip giving me view of Hamburg and London. Sadly, Air Berlin no longer be in business but one of the good airline for Germany nerveless.

    Hi, another great video. Would you do westjet, Glasgow to Halifax. A 737-700 is the aircraft they usually use, would be an interesting report.
    Once again another great video keep up the good work.
    Craig.

      +Craig Colligan Thanks Craig. I'll see how I feel about seven hours on a 737!

    • @jmgrahit26
      @jmgrahit26 5 лет назад

      It's around 5 to 6 hours and is actually no problem at all, Paul. BTW, they now use 737-800 aircraft. Very cheap flights. As a bonus, Halifax is a great city and you'd enjoy being there!

    Hey Paul! You're comin to H-town? That's awesome! I'll give you a fact about the a319! Did you know that at cruising height the a319 can elongate 4 to 6 inches in length? Watch a Texans game if you get the chance!!

    Nice one Paul. Hamburg is on my list of destinations. I've been before for work but never had time to enjoy the city. Did you go for the weekend?

    Funny how about 2 weeks ago I was in Hamburg airport on my way to London flying EasyJet. The EasyJet staff members were soo rude handling other customers, felt so bad for them.

  • @Whenitraveltheworld
    @Whenitraveltheworld 7 лет назад

    You always make economy look more fun that it really is with your videos. I'm wondering, what made you pick a seat so far back ? Last minute booking ? Or you just wanted a better view ?

    • @Paul_Lucas
      @Paul_Lucas  7 лет назад +1

      +When I Travel The World Cheers James. A few reasons. One, no wing obscuring the view. Two, a better chance of a free seat or row. Three, I always get a place to stow my bag. :-)

  • @jonbrown8553
    @jonbrown8553 7 лет назад +1

    Thanks, Paul for the smooth landing. Does BA charge extra for seat selection? Some U.S. airlines have started that loathsome practice.

    • @CS_22
      @CS_22 7 лет назад

      Jon Brown Yes they do. It's £15 Per Person Each Way

    • @jonbrown8553
      @jonbrown8553 7 лет назад

      Thank you.

    • @Paul_Lucas
      @Paul_Lucas  7 лет назад

      Jon Brown Yes they have done for a few years. However that's standard practice across Europe for most carriers, even big legacy ones. The cost varies by route and cabin class and can be anything from £8 to about £80 (yes they charge in international business!). It is a dumb practice but I always get free seat selection on BA as a Gold member, unless I travel on a hand baggage only fare in which case even then they want more money off me. Meh!

    What is your opinion on Hamburg Airport?

    • @Paul_Lucas
      @Paul_Lucas  7 лет назад +2

      Jp Kiel Thanks! I like Hamburg. It's a no-fuss airport. Been a few times now.

  • @ZuhairFarouk
    @ZuhairFarouk 7 лет назад +5

    Really enjoyed this trip report, thank you! Regarding buy-on-board-meals, I am totally against it! Customers will just have another reason to favour BA's competitors. As a Gold member, I believe snacks are complementary

    • @Whenitraveltheworld
      @Whenitraveltheworld 7 лет назад

      If only BA would do what AA does for elites when flying in Economy, it would go a long way

    • @Paul_Lucas
      @Paul_Lucas  7 лет назад

      +When I Travel The World No chance of that. It's just Ryanair with a Union Jack on the tail now, at least on SH anyway.

    • @Whenitraveltheworld
      @Whenitraveltheworld 7 лет назад

      One can only dream !

    • @ZuhairFarouk
      @ZuhairFarouk 7 лет назад

      I have experienced inconsistency with AA as well. As Gold member with BA (so Emerald with AA), I receive complementary snacks in economy on some flights but on other flights, they say "Platinum holders only". Miscommunication somewhere on their part.

    • @Paul_Lucas
      @Paul_Lucas  7 лет назад

      +Zuhair Farouk It is only for AA EXP. No entitlement for BA Golds written down anywhere. But, because their manifest often identifies OneWorld Emeralds as EXPs you'll find you get the goodies.
