I'll be doing a club world on Friday, once again the first for a while, I'll be interested to see how it stacks with my memories.
Sorry to thread drift...New Club seating and AV is excellent. Vittals ain't what they used to be but then they aren't on any airline these days...

I was shocked with First. Way out wasn't too bad because the a/c was quite modern. On the way back it was an older 777 with the 12 channel entertainment system and the tiny screen. If your last First (!) experience was mid-nineties then you would be sorely disappointed. Food, wine and the special ambience that was always there has just gone. Cheap little menus with truly the worst food I have ever tasted on an aeroplane, in any class. To be honest, unless BA do something, First is going to go the way of American domestic First Class...just a points upgrade cabin.
