Hey Nick, I was just having a look at some BA economy seats and clicked on this and started scimming through and suddenly realised we went to school together 😄 Hope you're doing well! and thanks for the video!
I've flown both business and economy (mostly) with BA. I just don't see the value in premium economy, but this video even makes me think twice about booking business to Antigua in December. A few hundred quid and making sure you're snappy and book good seats just seems far better value. The only thing is sleeping, but like you, we never sleep on flights.
Hello Helen, thank you so much for your kind comment! 😁 I'm so happy that you enjoyed the video and my personality! It especially means a lot to me that I made you happy, as that is part of the reason I do this 😁 I hope you had a wonderful flight to Tobago? ✈️
That was one of the best reviews I've ever watched: informative and interesting. We've booked a 777-200 on BA next year so now feel better informed. We will be in the first of the 2 seaters at the back so that we will not have to climb over a third person and we will be closer to the bathroom & the extra drinks and snacks! THANKS!
We had one of the rear sets of 2 on a BA 777-300ER last year, so pretty much he same as the -200ER, they’re fantastic, plenty of space on either side and just generally loads of room, and perfect if there’s only two of you. Worth paying for!
Wow, thank you so much Grant! 😁 What a lovely comment. That's honestly made my day! I'm so glad you enjoyed the review. Great to hear that you've booked the 777-200 for this year - you'll no doubt have a wonderful time. My parents tried out the two seats on a recent flight and really enjoyed them for the same reason - not having a seat neighbour to climb over. So it's certainly a great choice! If it is a night flight, make sure you have some headphones or ear plugs with you, so you can block out the sound of people going to the bathroom 😊 Thank you again, Grant!
Hi Scott, great to hear you enjoyed the two seaters on the -300ER! My parents recently flew in those seats and loved them! We will definitely give those seats a go the next time we fly BA economy on this aircraft - having no seat neighbour is basically business class! Haha
@@travelswithbieber We’re flying with BA again this year and have decided to book them, at least for the outbound. It was such an improvement over the normal 3 seat!
Great video and glad you had a fantastic flight on this aircraft with BA. I'm doing a similar return journey from Las Vegas to Gatwick on this type of aircraft and booked 20C as it was no fee for me. Looks like the legroom is fantastic. I've been flying premium the last few trips so this is encouraging. Thanks for sharing.
I will fly from berlin to london soon with BA and i was pretty nervous because my expieriences in the past weren't good so it feels good to know how those economy seats are thank you 🎉🎉❤
How exciting! 🎉😁 I hope you had a great flight?! I'm sorry to hear you were nervous... but I'm so glad my video helped you 😁 Fingers crossed for better experiences in future 🤞🏻 Thank you so much for watching! 😊
Ah Chrissie, thank you so much for your kind comment! 😁 I'm so glad it helped you, and I hope you have an absolutely fantastic time in Memphis in November! I have no doubt you will - just enjoy every moment! 😁
Thank you so much! That's really nice of you to say 😁 Unfortunately written reviews do tend to be negative 😔 Usually people post only write reviews when things go wrong, not when things go well 👎🏻 Fortunately, video reviews are different as the review starts before we have even stepped foot on the plane! 😊 Your trip in November sounds great! I hope you have a wonderful time in Kenya and enjoy your flight with BA. I've no doubt you will love it. And make sure to walk to the galley whenever you fancy a free drink (or two) or snack... the cabin crew are usually always happy to help 😁
BA have just announced the return of the London/Bangkok route, we normally fly Eva or Thai airways, but I have a load of Avios points to use. The flights were £704 economy each, but we had to pay extra for seat choice, so roughly the same amount as We would normally be paying with Thai, we got them for £202.00 each using our avios points, but then had to pay £144.00 for good seat choice. Hoping its going to be a good experience , as we have enough avios points to do this again.
Have just booked with British Airways to go to Punta Cana. Is there only one toilet for economy? Im sure the seat map was showing one behind the curtain? Were you far enough away that the smell was not over whelming. On long flights, they usually get unbearable . For some reason, the seat guru map is showing economy starts at 26? All the people on their saying which seats are better are from years ok. Could you book as soon as you booked your seat? Ours says 24hrs before? Did they ask you if you were physically able to open the door as its by an exit? Sorry for all the questions, looking for a seat with legroom as my grandsons had a major operation on his leg.
@@travelswithbieber Yes it was really great. A must f long hauls for me was the aisle seat near the toilets and kitchen. I paid for my seat and I was able to stand up anytime for my legs. I had a nice seat neighbour's and everyone was relaxed. The BA crew were outstanding nice and delivered a good service. I have booked f November my next flight for Cancun with BA😁
BA lounge at Gatwick looks more relaxing than LHR which is now horrendously overcrowded all the time and almost not working going into. Thanks for sharing. Good to see the 777-200s still working hard.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! 😁 Haha, it sure is a small microphone - but it does a great job! Would be more comical if I was holding a full sized one 🎤🤣
Thank you Sharon, I'm glad you found the video helpful 😊 I hope you have an amazing time in Punta Cana and enjoy the lovely sunshine and beautiful beaches as much as we did 😁
I've just done Gatwick/ tobago, that service stops at St lucia for around 1 and a half hours. I've gotta be honest, it's just too much of an endurance. I can't do that again personally.
That sure is a long flight! I can totally understand that it can be too much to endure. If only Concorde was still around, eh? ✈️ Maybe one day! 🤞🏻 Until then, at least at the end of the flight you have pure relaxation in paradise ⛱️😊
As a gate team member at BA, it is very disappointing to see they denied you boarding and made you buy a mask, for nothing. At Heathrow we don't make you buy one, we encourage it (ONLY IF the destination requires face masks) as the crew don't have enough masks to give to everyone but would never send you away from the gate. Sorry you spent so much money on a piece of fabric, to then not even be required to wear it.. I would try to claim it back through ba if I were you, especially as a silver member.
Thank you for your comment 😊 It sure was disappointing to be forced to buy a mask to board the flight only to find they weren't needed. Thankfully we are way past that now, so hopefully that won't happen again 🤞🏻 No need to be sorry, it wasn't your fault! 😊 Thank you so much for sharing my frustration though - if only you were the gate agent that day! Haha
That was a great review. I flew BA for the 2nd time I'm March lax to Heathrow and then Greece. Both great flights and also the return. Polite staff and great service. However, I did not care for the food except the quinoa salad, otherwise way too many carbs. Happy to have something to eat and still appreciate it. Will book again!
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! 😁 Good to hear you had two great flights with BA ✈️ As for the food, I have to agree with you - the food can be disappointing which is a big shame, as that plays a big part in the whole flight experience, in my opinion. But like you said, it's still food! 😊 Fingers crossed they improve on that and then we are all happy! 😁
This is my first video of yours I watched and I must say job well done and Thank you for sharing. I will be lookinf forward to my first flight with BA to Heathrow Airport this fall. What would you recommend to do while staying an extra night near the hotel in Heathrow? Once again thank you for sharing your video
Thank you for the kind words, Tim! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😁 I hope you have a great flight with BA to Heathrow this autumn (or fall, in your neck of the woods 🍂🇺🇸👍🏻). As for hotels near Heathrow, you'll be spoilt for choice! If you want great runway views, however, I'd go for the Renaissance Hotel which overlooks one of the two runways at Heathrow 😊 I've stayed there before and it's great!
Thank you flying for the first time with British airways from Gatwick ask for assistance as never been to Gatwick be for thank you flying to Dominican Republic tina from Lyme Regis really good tips as first time flyer 😊
Hi Carly! 😊 I'm so sorry for the late reply - how was the flight?! And more importantly, how was Vegas?! 🎰 I hope you won some money 💰! Haha. I'm off to Vegas next month, actually 😁 As for the seats, I felt they were comfy, although they are not the biggest seat, especially at exit rows as the tray tables are built into the arm rests which reduce the width of the seat... I hope you got on okay! 🤞🏻😊
Hello Maria, thank you for your comment 😊 It really depends on what you all like - window seats, being served food early, not wanting to be disturbed (so avoiding being near the toilets) etc. Usually the best seats are the bulkhead rows - so the first row of economy or the exit seats further down, as they give you the best legroom. The downsides are the exit row seats are next to the toilet so you may get disturbed. The configuration is 3-4-3... so you can have three next to the window and two across from you in the middle... or three at the window and the other two behind you also at the window? It all depends on your preferences to be honest. I hope that is some help? 😊 I hope you all have a fantastic time in Punta Cana - we absolutely loved it when we went! 😁
Customer service with BA a few years back was great, but now BA has gone over to call centers in India, Not very helpful with answering my questions, and always having to repeat myself, Best to keep customer services in the UK.
You people should either wait until you have your own children or at the very least remember that you did have them earlier in your self righteous lives.
The magic number is 33! 😉 Our sears were 33J and 33K 💺 The only negatives were being next to the toilets (which can be annoying if you're trying to sleep) and the emergency exit door sticks out a bit if you're sitting at the window... but the leg room more than makes up for it in my opinion! 😊
Yep, that's exactly what they did! I wanted to have a real good moan about that in the video, but if I did then the video would never end! Haha. Absolutely ridiculous from BA 🤦🏻♂️ By the way, thank you for watching! 😊
Aww please don't worry! You will have an absolutely amazing time ❤️😁 Just remember that flying is SO safe, much safer than driving! And it actually becomes so much fun to fly once you get through your fears. Think of it like a fairground ride - it's scary at first, but once you've done it you suddenly love it! 😊 Just remember that everything will be fine, and enjoy the adventure 😁
Anyone taking screaming brats should pay twice the price. People are going on holiday to escape from daily life for a short while and shouldn’t have to listen to that.
How dare a baby cry. I’m sure it was doing it just to annoy you. Why do people even need to take babies away anyway….. Get some noise cancelling head phones and pipe down. Entitled ****
Hello Mark, thanks for your thoughts and for informing me that I'm an entitled '**'. That's very kind of you 🤦🏻♂️ I just had a little moan - which we all do from time to time - because a long flight with a crying baby can be frustrating. I'm not the only one that feels this way, even some parents feel the same! This doesn't mean I don't agree with babies on board whatsoever 😊 Have a good day Mark, even if you do think I'm an entitled '**' 👍🏻
@@travelswithbieber Yes, agree, can't blame the baby, blame the fucking parents who often selfishly drag their young ones on 'holiday' so they can maintain the Insta status. Just like people who eat nuts on flights when cabin crew have asked them not to. World is filled with selfish pricks, encouter them regularly on flights. 🤦♂️
He si very much entitled... guess his parents never traveled with him as a child they he has the audacity to mention waiting 12 minutes for assistance as if he was gonna die without getting some earphones.

Which seat number were you sitting in?
Was there only USB power at the seat? No plug sockets?
Hi Luke, thanks for your question. Yes, there was only USB power and no plug sockets. That's quite typical for economy seats, unfortunately
On European flights all you get is H2O; water and a rice crispy Kellogs bar.
You have to admit though, the Rice Krispies bar sure is nice! Haha 🙈
You people should either wait until you have your own children or at the very least remember that you did have them earlier in your self righteous lives.
What seat number did you have?
Hello Kenneth, our seats were 32J and 32K (window seat). I hope you enjoyed the video 😊
@@travelswithbieber I did!!!
What was your seat number
What seat is this 😊 i want to get one haha
The magic number is 33! 😉 Our sears were 33J and 33K 💺 The only negatives were being next to the toilets (which can be annoying if you're trying to sleep) and the emergency exit door sticks out a bit if you're sitting at the window... but the leg room more than makes up for it in my opinion! 😊
👍🏼😘
So they made you buy a mask that you didn't even need to use once on the flight!
WTF!
Yep, that's exactly what they did! I wanted to have a real good moan about that in the video, but if I did then the video would never end! Haha. Absolutely ridiculous from BA 🤦🏻♂️ By the way, thank you for watching! 😊

@@thediamondsinger1113fair enough but taking brats on planes should incur extra costs.

Absolutely spot on

Don't know why people fly with babies to long haul places.
What are they supposed to do if they need to go to a “long haul place” UPS?
Yeah just put them in the mail
