Once again an invitation to fill in an enormous online questionnaire that allows me to say if I think BA makes me feel good but has no space for complaints or a discussion of the awful food service and the bone hard seating
No wonder they sail on thinking they're "the world's favourite airline" when they have proofed the system against complaints |
Good job Ryanair's around to take the "accolade" of worst airline from Which. It means BA is only the second worst airline! :ooh:

BA2272/2273 LGW to JFK is sold and seat booking as a B777 - 200 4 class seating 3.4.3 in economy. however for the last couple of months has been operated as a Evelop A330 -300 2 class seating economy 2.4.2
the reason I bring this up is that we are on this flight in July 2020 now if it continues we will I'm sure get a re seating email question is why this flight constantly and why the shortage of Gatwick class B777? |

Due to the 787 issues out of LHR. Some LGW 777’s have gone up to LHR to help the operation. |

As flyer guy has said due to ongoing 787 engine issues one of the LGW 3 class GE 777 is currently based at LHR solely covering the BWI route daily. The Evelop lease is due to end mid Jan and the route due back on BA metal after the annual pause to the route for a few weeks end of Jan/start of Feb. |
Many thanks. Makes sense was/am hoping we get a sub A350 … Chance / Fat

Busiest European BA monopoly destination
As a regular on the BA LHR-HAJ services I wondered whether this route is in fact the busiest London (all airports) to Continental Europe destination served by only BA (currently 12/7, from Summer 2020 up to 19/7). Who would know better than this forum? :) any takers?

Is the BA website down ? It keeps telling me that it cannot find any flights.

I have now got it to show my outgoing flight but when I ask for the return it says that they do not exist - despite my having made a relevant booking earlier in the day.
And on the 1st. Jan. I managed to make the second booking. |
The BBC is reporting that Willie Walsh is retiring as head of IAG w.e.f. 30th June. Some Spanish bloke will take over.
|
'Some Spanish Bloke' is of course Luis Gallego, the head of Iberia.

In some parts Gallego means “some Spanish bloke”. I like to think ETOPS knows this.
|
According to Google, it means a Gallician. Given their Celtic-influenced culture, I doubt they like being called Spanish at all!
|
I can confirm that in South America, the term 'Gallego / Gallega' was (and maybe still is, I'm not sure on that bit) used to refer to any Peninsular Spaniard. I think the idea that their culture is more Celtic-influenced as anybody else's in Western Europe seems to be a modern invention based on the fact that they're on the Western seaboard of Europe. Their language is definitely Romance. But I wouldn't say those last two sentences on a dark night in Vigo :)
|
BA have suspended all direct flights to/from China until at least Friday (31st).
|
An 18+ hour delay to the 057 to JNB last night has gotta hurt the pax. Not too many spare 380s lying around.
