    I flew LHR - SEA in 62K in Feb. 2009. More room and more privacy than when I flew the same route in FIRST in 1F on a BA 777 the previous year.

    I last flew on BA in the late 1980s. Superb service in first-class. The staff couldn't do enough for you.

    Thanks for taking the time to watch this video. I ended up with about 40+ minutes of footage from this flight and wanted it at about 16 for the final cut - but this what I got! If you’re ever booked on a BA 747 in Business Class, I thoroughly recommend trying to get on the upper deck!

      This is not a review. It's a promotional video! I was a Captain with BA for many years. Their business class was probably the best on the market. Unfortunately, it is now rated down with Kenya Airways, which says it all. I am no longer associated with BA & it's dreadful boss, Willie Walsh, & I['d rather pay full fare on other airlines, than get discount on BA. ( & I'm Jack not Jess, due to which e mail works here!)

    I flew BA Club World in the Upper Deck from JFK to LHR last year. Despite all the criticisms of BA Club, the Upper Deck experience is quite magical and unique. It really feels private in the 2-2 config. And the service, from my experience, is exceptional.

    • @AVCTripReports

    Great video buddy. It’s such a privilege to be in the upper deck of the one and only Boeing 747. I don’t honestly care about how old the 747 is. I always feel so happy and emotional to fly in the Queen. I love the 747 with all my heart. She is my own mother from the sky, taking me safely to a new place. She is my Queen. It’s my dream and wish to hear the Rolls Royce engines of the British Airways 747. Even if I don’t get to, that won’t take my love of the Queen of the Skies. Boeing 747, I love you!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    • @AVCTripReports
      @AVCTripReports  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      64A/K (on 747) are really good if you can get them as they have direct access to the aisle. Any window seat on the upper deck I throughly recommend mind on the 747 or A380.

    I remember the old original BA 747s - the First Class offered you the 'bubble' upstairs. There was a bar and crew would serve you with drinks, coffee , tea etc. Nice seats to relax and meet other people! Now you just sit in a cocoon and meet nobody - just play with IT junk. Lovely trip once with TWA upper deck - great people once met...

    Thanks for the great review. I have a trip coming up in July and I was sad to being bumped from BA1 to a 747 out of LHR to JFK. For months the upper deck showed no availability and after reading all of the negative reviews of their outdated J product I wasn't looking forward to riding on the 8 across lower deck. However, just this week a seat just opened up on the upper that I was able to grab so while the seat is the same as the ones below I am excited about the upcoming ride. It will be my second time on the 747 UD (First was on an LH 747-8).

    It’s the Delaware River you’d passed over on approach to runway R27. The Schuylkill, a much smaller river, feeds into the Delaware, much as the River Hull feeds into the Humber, and is for pleasure craft only.The Delaware River is what makes Philadelphia a port city.

    • @AVCTripReports
      @AVCTripReports  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching. The 747 is certainly one of the more fun ways to get across the Atlantic compared to the two engine jets, given a choice I probably would choose it on a day flight and perhaps a newer jet like the 787 on a night time flight due to the quieter cabin. Thanks for continuing to watch my videos!

    • @sishack
      @sishack 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      mezsh Normal on reverse selection. To minimise the risk of debris and ice/slush/water being thrown up into the cavity and mechanisms. In certain conditions the super cooled airframe will cause cold water to freeze on contact thus potentially causing damage on subsequent retraction or extension. They also experience a high level of buffeting from the reverse stream which can accelerate wear to the linkages and mechanism of the leading edge devices.

      @Claude Bedard that may be so, but the level of service in business on BA and the American carriers is woefully poor compared to the middle east Airlines. They've been caught with there pants down and have never caught up. Even Rwandair in business is better than BA"s Club World. The economics work if you get the business, whoever owns it, be it a billionaire or a state or a conglomerate of pension/hedge fund managers who suck the life out of every business.

    I’m very lucky to travel to the east coast with Work from UK. I always try to get a 747 over a 777. Seat 64k upstairs on the right of the aircraft. It’s backwards facing but you don’t have to climb over anyone to move about. Right near the stairs too if you want to stretch your legs. People love to bash BA on you tube. Yes some of it looks a bit dated but transport through T5 Heathrow is painless and the reality is you spend most of your time doing other stuff on the plane rather than eat and drink. Could be on any aircraft. I have understand about 70% have been updated now. I get a load of snack and make a den and watch family guy!!

    Just make sure you don't get their unrenovated 747s which still have 20year old seats. Got stuck with that to JFK 3 months ago. Appalling product. Watch out for mid J configuration on seat guru and avoid at all costs.

      thes4uce to be honest I don’t care about the unrenovated 747s. It seems just fine for me. I still feel comfortable. I don’t honestly care about the age of the 747. I just felt so happy and emotional to just be on the 747.

    Flying Business class with BA is the worst decision you can ever make. The seats are horrible and even I as a German say the service is not good and usually we take pride in being the most unfriendly people you can be around.

      It's fashionable to knock B.A. these days because they are no longer the prestige airline they once were but to say the staff are awful is simply not true from my experience. I use B.A. Club World on a regular basis because they give me some great deals and I've never found the service to be anything other than professional and helpful. Of course it depends who is on board on any particular day but I've had bad service on Delta and United (never again!) which was far below anything on B.A.

    • @philipcollier263
      @philipcollier263 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      cameronpaul agreed. I’ve never really had a bad experience with BA to be honest. The short haul services in particular are perfectly fine really and pretty much the same price as the budget carriers. Like you said, it’s a very fashionable opinion that they suck and everything about them is terrible, but I do wonder sometimes how often many of those people actually fly with them.

    • @joev8140
      @joev8140 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Kev in England first of all; BA operates a sustainable and relatively modern fleet that fits the routes they operate, not sure why you mean my bad everything as it's a big to vague. Food however, I will agree with you on that. Once again a joke airline is a bit vague so not sure where to touch on with that. In the 21st century with airlines like Ryanair and easyJet operating a cheap and still comfortable industry, I do think BA's days are coming to an end.
