What music do you listen to?
Dan: I listen to boarding music
Ikr!? Awesome comment
Oklp
I've only watched 2 min so far - AND IT's Already funny 😂
Love your content as always. Also as a crew member on a major premium airline I love that you understand that airline management are responsible for short comings and not the crew. Many other vloggers such as josh seem to refer to crew as “lazy” and that comes across as insanely entitled and disrespectful. I love that you never complain about crew and can see through on board issues to their origin unlike other vloggers who only see things on the surface and can’t critically think to why things may be a certain way. I have lots of respect for that so thank you. I’m sure the crew were stressed and understaffed on that flight (trust me I know how they feel) as my own airline tends to cut costs on having a reduced amount of staff compared to other airlines in the Middle East or Asia. Great content and videos you’re by far the best airline vlogger on TH-cam. Keep it up.
Whilst BA has seen some improvement recently - I’m sad that my national airline is simply not up to par. There are so many cheaper and better options out there. Come on BA. Do Britain proud. Dan, you’re a legend!
Yes, same here. The impression I get is that in Economy they are basically Ryanair with a bowtie. I avoid both!
Simon Davey the CEO is Spanish and have the new aircraft fly to Spain. British is just a name :)
Firstly its NOT British! It may have that name but its owned by IAG out of Spain. The CEO, Cruz, is ex budget airline Vuelling -need I say more? If you want a good Airline try any of the top ten. Qatar, Singapore, ANA, Cathay, Emirates, EVA, Hainan, Qantas, Lufthansa and Thai. Note BA did not even come close.
john russell Delta Airlines is also top class.
john russell at least BA don’t have 10 abreast on all their 777s. Boy is that economy configuration of 3-4-3 on a 777 shite
SQ management would be up in roars if their crew took 3 hours to serve food lol
SQ is the best!
Qatar as well on their Qsuites
SQ would be punching the air
@@xsentinel3044 Most certainly they'd be punching their employees for that!
@@xsentinel3044 who is sq
Great review! I bursted out laughing at 5:40 😂!
Dan ... Sorry to see your flight wasn’t up to par 😔. The meal looked lame and I hope it wasn’t because of your dietary choices. I don’t have dietary restrictions so haven’t ever had skimpy meal like that ... still no excuse for Business Class. Also the length of time for meal service is totally without any excuse. Lastly, British isn’t the only one that charges for advance seat selection in Business. I fly Swiss from the States to Zurich a couple times a year to visit my Sister. Swiss charges $149.00 USD each way if you want to reserve the throne seat. That’s on top of the $6,500.00 cost of flying Business Class. That’s just not right. Are you planning on sharing your thoughts with British Airways at all? As always, I enjoy your candid presentation/s. Best Regards to Oskar. 👍🏻
InstaBlaster...
That inflight snack bar was one of the saddest things I've ever seen. An empty chocolate wrapper and a bag of chocolate buttons.
maybe because he checked it at the end of the flight, once everyone has used it
It’s actually very good, and is just what you need after your meal.
The seat seems pretty much identical to the new Air Canada international business seat. I was on the Vienna-Toronto flight a few days back and I recognize every single feature. Only difference is the colours, loved the seat and had a great sleep.
It’s really good content Dan. I’ve been a subscriber for a long time now, and you just get better and better. Very comprehensive.
Super surprised by the food service you had. I’ve been fortunate enough to fly club multiple times in the last few years & the food/presentation and service has been fantastic. Here’s hoping this is only a kink in the new club suite service that’s ironed out quick. Another great video, also 👏🏼
Great video, Dan
love your videos❤ think I've seen them all😂❤
Hey dan! Love your videos! Keep up your amazing content!✈️✈️✈️
Omg! You liked my comment!
So excited to see these new seats 🤩🤩🔥👍
Keep going Dan! Your reviews are so complete and well done, it's awsome !
Thanks Hady!
Hady Mansour: And honest, unbiased detailed information. Well done Dan👍
NonStop Dan “I’m just sitting, looking over the tarmac”
All AvGeeks “Ahhhh it kills me, I thought you were one of us”
Hahahaha :((( I'm an avgeek I swear!
No tarmac allowed!!!! 😎😂
TARMAC
As allways, a great video Dan. Thank you so much.
I love your videos, they’re so good and super helpful, I’m flying to Toronto with KLM in Feb for my Bday and can’t wait, I’d love if you could show more of the airports and the facilities, as well as average check in/ security and transfer times, can’t wait for more reviews, best AvGeek on TH-cam ❤️
Flying club suite to PHL next summer can’t wait!! Great video Dan :)
A fair and balanced review ... it is great that BA aspire to improve 😃❤️
Thanks for your great video Dan.
You’re right Dan. Fly with the best!
Dan,
Excellent job and great feedback.
On another note. You have perfect hair!
Thank you
great review dan, thanks
Fab! great review. Good to know. I was just about to book a flight with them, now I'm looking for other options. Thank you fun to watch as always!
That landing music - love it
I keep watching this video to listen to it - welcome to my world
Cool vid and thx for the review I’m gonna try this with my dad
You have the best videos dan
finally its out :D I was so excited for this thanks Dan!
Hope you enjoy!
JustAFish: Me to. Loved the classy, stylish hard product👍. But honestly the food and service do not match the style and class of the product.
Nonstop Dan i definitely did !
Brilliant But Blue yeah i agree but all fights are different
just started the video n already laughing. love ur videos dan, they put a smile on my face always! ❤️
Thanks Maya❤️
Thank you for the review. It was helpful to allow me to choose which airline to fly business during my next European vacation.
Great video again
Great video, love your content its the service that makes the business class for me and not the brand new plane..
5:47 When you open your phone in selfie mode
THE CLASH LONDON IS CALLING, WOW, NOW WE ARE FRIENDS!!!!!!!! SINCE 1983, I'VE LOVED THE CLASH!!!!!
Thank Dan other on point video.
Thanks for posting this video. I've been waiting for this route to be reviewed. BA has some really tough competition on this route and I'm surprised at the low service levels. I HATE it when you pay for premium service and you get economy pax lining up for the lav.
Great Video. Good Job
Great video...on a great new plane
I can't believe you are in Toronto right now!!! I live there as well! Had to go to school in another city! I hope you enjoy your stay in Toronto Dan!!!!
Looks good 👍
Totally agree with you regarding food. They were #1 for so long. Its imperative for them too get back to true business class levels. Been flying BA since 1978. So relate. Thankyou great vlog👍👊😁🥂🥂
Brewdog Speedbird and St Austell Tribute, nice! Always like a plane loaded with craft beer.
I should've known you were a Belinker! I knew you had good taste!
Love the Glee Team
Great job😉
Honestly I think the food you got reallly didn't match my recent experiences in Club World. I flew the JFK route a few times this year and the new catering from DO and Co always impressed me and was the best I've experienced on a central European carrier. Maybe it's because of your special meal, but what you got was definitely unacceptable, especially that everything was wrapped in plastic. Also the waiting times I experienced were much lower. I fly on the A350 to YYZ in December. I hope that my non special meal is living up to what I recently got on my JFK and EWR flights and that by then they either increased stuff or they got more used to the new aircraft. So my conclusion of your video: I'm happy that the seat is great and for all the rest I can only say let's hope it's to the new aircraft and your special meal (Which definitely needs to be better). Cause as I said the new DoCo meals so far were amazing!
If nothing else, enjoy the A350!
*Increased staff, not stuff.,
When did the UK become part of Central Europe? 😂
You are the best youtuber flight reviewer you are better then me at vlogging lol 😂
I flew BA economy from London to Johannesburg in an A380. I paid some $80 extra to get the best seat in economy. When I came onboard there was a just married couple sitting there. They would't move. The flight attendant was kind enough to take me to a tour around the whole airplane, both upstairs and downstairs, to choose a new seat. I ended up choosing a seat 10 rows from where I should have been sitting. That seat was only half the price, but no refund.
Is that a business model? BA overbooking expensive seats? Ok, it's only $40 difference, you could say, but I paid for a product that I did not get.
did you email them?
Great vids.😄
I remember when seat selection at BA was free of charge and they were just so friendly and flexible with your requests. Now they seem to have gone downhill unfortunately :( although the business class looks lush !
With charging for seat selection they do something for their frequent flyers. Because they don’t have to pay for seat selection and usually don’t book so far ahead. I think it’s a nice perk for Executive Club members.
I went on the A350 on my birthday to Madrid in the new club suite, and the pilot let me in the cockpit! So, for me, it was really fun! Great video Dan! 👍
0:03 nice reaction!!!!😂😂😂
Eee thank you for this! Am flying Heathrow to Toronto early November 😚
Fly AIR CANADA INSTEAD
Dan, you should do a Spotify Playlist of airline boarding music. That'd be great to fall asleep to.
Thanks for another great review! Spot on comments about the slowness of meal and drink service on BA. Whenever I am sitting downstairs on a 747 or A380 I make it a point to go to the galley after takeoff and put in a drink request, otherwise it can take over an hour to get a drink. This is the downside to having so many business class PAX vs crew.
HOWEVER, I have to say I'm surprised by the catering here. The food across the BA offering (including in Club Europe) has been improving steadily over the past 2-3 years and I've not had a bad meal in the last 10 flights (inc prem economy/WTP where you get the same meal as business/CW). I've also never had anything served in plastic in CW. I wonder if the catering quality issues are unique to those with special dietary requirements, perhaps worsened by the less experienced mixed fleet. I appreciate being vegan isn't so "special" these days, but I wonder if it might be fairer to point that out more explicitly? Also, did you request special meals prior to departure? You can do this in the app/ online.
Super nice upload ☺👍
Great Video 👍
thanks for a good view on BA, I always fly emirates with good service - good show.
Yes, finally taking my first post Covid trip and the BA charge for seats were ridiculous. I had to pay for 4 flight for 2 people because we had a layover.
Welcome to Toronto Nonstop Dan!!!
I’ve been on this seat. It is quite underwhelming
Thanks you nonstop dan for replying to me it made my day
Sad to hear that :(
BA are doing a massive PR job on telling us Brits how heavily focused they are on improving their product, including a documentary series on domestic TV. I really hope they watch this and see how much further they've got to go - some aspects of the service (food, seat charging) are abysmal for the price they charge. Thanks for the fair & honest review Dan 👍
Just a load of b--------ks-!
i've stayed on the 37th floor in the same hotel and the same general area! great location and super glad you found this hotel
And that is why I am not spending my precious airmiles on BA!
I'm with you on that one...
Im so happy we still have the Queen of the Skies on our route. I can never get enuff of the clubworld upperdeck. Have never been disappointed for the 19 years I have flown in it. Better than First everytime
Should have tried the 747 upper deck on Qantas.
The music though 😂😂😂
Lovin all of the videos Dan and I hope you could please try flying economy in Flydubai and also Spicejet & Indigo which are really good budget airlines from India that are both regularly selling tickets for a price of around only $50 per flight which is less than double of what it costs to enter most airport lounges!
“...This is actually unacceptable. 2 hours and a half in and the appetiser is just cleared after 30 minutes...”
UNACCEPTABLE lol 😂😂😂
Loving the tee shirt 👀👍🏻
Great and honest review👍. BA service recovery team should now takeover and get back to you ASAP‼️
The new club suite is really just a reverse herringbone seat with a door, not to impressive but still very nice!
Air Canada had these exact seats years ago!!:)
Your British trolley-dolly accent at 5:57 is horrific. I love it.
the boarding music had me wheezing
Awesome Review!!! Been saving my avios for ageeees. Won’t be using it on that flight!
I like the fact that they charge for seats (selfishly) as it frees up the seats for status pax so we have a better choice when we book
Hahahaha 0:04 😂
I really like this trip report! It’s a shame that the club suite didn’t reach its full potential... I thought it would possibly put it in the league of other airlines such as emirates..
As always, another AMAZING report!!
I read something about their club suite and they said that these were crew training flights, meaning that the cabin crew are getting used to the layout, that's why you had to wait a long time, normal flights will resume in march, btw great video
Great review Dan,l was wondering if you fell ill often?as you fly so much and with the poor air quality,just curious.Love your videos you give such a comprehensive review,💗
Dan, I just love you so much.
Thanks For Another Great Review. BA is usually amazing and I’m sorry to hear that you had a bad experience.
Dan, will you be trying Air Mauritius anytime soon? Just wondering on your opinion of their product.
Me and my family have been on emirates first class 4 times because I have family who live in Dubai. We are supposed to be going to Toronto business class in November. In the summer we are going to Australia quantas first class. Btw you have great informative videos.
you are right not fair value for the fare....and you are also right so many other options...nice to note your empathy for the cabin crew
Yes please I Like to see both sides of business
Incredible they charge for seat selection in business! Is this a new thing, as that never used to be the case. Having said that, I haven’t flown with them for a while!
Very good vlog. Points highlighted agree with you. I have flown alot with BA, seen a decline with food. Have you flown A380 BA? Love 747 but planes are now worn out for sure
No no no no he said “TaRmAC” game over lads
Speed Bird What a wally
I love that eye mask as well! And the pillow is Hungarian goose down, so divine! I had to get one from the White company after flying Club :)
Great review, such a shame BA let's themselves down in this way.
When you’ve flown so much you don’t just know the new car smell you know the new plane smell.
Another great review. You are so lucky to travel all the time but aren’t you missing home sometimes? The BA experience is a shocker. Good seats and underwhelming service and a plastic wrapped Bread is a no go ! Safe travels
Great review as always Dan. Lipstick on a pig is about right for BA. The new seat is an obvious improvement though but for each route they fly there are many other better prices and better spec competitors
I took the BA A350-1000 (G-XWBA) when it was still operating LHR-MAD in business class. The crew were more senior, the food was better and the service more prompt. I would imagine the experienced crew are now on the 777 which was recently upgraded to Club Suite, leaving the poor A350-1000 with relatively inexperienced crew members.
Can you do a Singapore Airlines premium economy review?? ( on the A350-900ulr)
Thanks
Love your channel
The toilet issue is not a petty complaint at all. When I do get the opportunity to fly Business having a less busy toilet is top of my pro list for flying at the front of the plane.
OMG YOU ARE A BELINKER TOO! 😍
What seems so weird is that this is a complete opposite to what I experienced in July. My flight was a 10 hour Gatwick to Tampa in club world. My seat was the exact same as the one in your Madrid video with exactly the same entertainment ( think the reg was GYMMS there and GYMMD on the way back) but definitely showing their age they were very tatty. But the crew was amazing, helpful and quick. The food was great quality and all done with in under 1 hour! Maybe it’s BA’s lack of ability to cater to those with dietary restrictions but i personally have always found their food really decent. Maybe with the long wait theyre still training crews and the ovens and other equipment are new to them and they’re struggling to get food out on time. Maybe it will settle once more @
A350s are out and more crews are trained on it.
The new catering hub at Heathrow is under construction still
Super video as ever. Am I right in thinking that you tend to pre-order a meal with special dietary requirements? I kinda feel like it should be pointed out as the quality of the regular menu items is far better. I appreciate other airlines do better special meals and BA ought to too, but your experience with the food is unlikely to be reflected for the majority of flyers.
David K fully agree - I thought this was a bit unfair too.
Looking cool...
That food service is the saddest thing I’ve seen.
Antivlog your the saddest thing I’ve seen
