We've just flown to/from joberg on BA's A380. Our take off, at both airports, seemed slow and ponderous. I knew we were going to get off the ground sometime, but when! Upstairs toilets very spacious as you say. What I thought was not good was the business class seat positioning in flat bed mode with the strange mini foot stool down to make the flatbed. In this mode passengers in the middle aisle and window seats have to clamber over other passengers footstools to get out to aisle. A truly bizarre arrangement. Give me a 747 any day. Even and comfortable cabin temperature at all times which was nice.
