PLEASE READ: Like everyone else, we are very concered about the current situation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. We have suspended all travels until at least late-April. However, we have decided to continue to publish videos as usual because luckily, within the past twelve months, we were able to record a lot more videos than we were able to publish. This means we will publish some older Tripreports we weren't yet able to cut and upload. And we have enough of them to continue to publish three Tripreports per week for the foreseeable future! We ask for your apology for having to upload some older videos which are not necessarily up-to-date. As always, you can see when a video was recorded in the description. Thank you for your understanding. We wish everyone, especially those working in the aviation and travel industry, a lot of strenght in this difficult time. Remember to wash your hands and stay safe!

British Airways now ground nearly all aircraft in all British airports. They even put some of them at the small Bournemouth airport according to my local news on TV. I just heard Easy Jet now grounded all aircraft except for a few that brought stranded British citizens home. I think the grounding will be expended beyond late April.
The cabin looks big and spacious. I'm amazed how quiet the A350-1000 is. That takeoff was so quiet. I can't wait to fly one of these. Thanks for uploading.
This video was recorded pre-COVID-19 as they had some videos that they did not have time to publish before. I recommend looking at the pinned comment for more information.
Nan Su thanks for your kind words but life’s a lot easier these days. We hit AT, VNAV, FD is set and mostly flirt with the middle aged frustrated stewardess with sporadic naps. Not too shabby!
Seems like a pretty unusual situation. Normally once you're on descent you're cleaning away the food. Sounds like an ooops for the crew, I'd love to know what happened. Any guesses?
@@Pius-XI lol I hate that. I mean, it's so rude. Happens all the time - on all airlines I ever flew. As an ex-AA staff member I can tell you this is super frowned upon, but carries on regardless.
Studied in London, entered Heathrow about 4 times and all of them were 'red eye' flights, it's likely because of the departure and arrival restrictions after 9pm hence heathrow in particular has a larger amount of early morning flights.
What a coincidence! I just watched a couple of episodes of Ultimate Airport Dubai so I recognized many things in the beginning. In one of the episodes they were building concourse D and this guy named Myles was using the crane and lifting those train cars you were in onto the track! Very Interesting. Really enjoyed the video. 😀
Finally!! You recorded the inflight announcements!! I kept waiting and waiting! Haha! Thank you so much!! Please record more of those! (And this one was especially fun to listen to with the British accent!) Love your videos! (Esp because you show us economy class trip reports and not only business and first like other AV vloggers)

Welcome to the UK!!!...let me now offload my cargo of 250 people who have all squashed up at the inter terminal sky train, packed out the first carriage and left the other one empty and then climbed over each other getting their hand luggage, all originating from a country that has over 1,000 cases over Coved 19 and still acts normal. Thanks. Great new aircraft and crew are super efficient bearing in mind the length of service on this equipment. Did a Toronto in J and it was fantastic. Well done BA...first airline to have Lie Flat seats all those years ago and now first airline to have Business class suites with a privacy door, whilst the heralded Emirates still has 777's with a middle seat in Business!!!!
Not most, just “ all originating from a country that has over 1,000 cases of Coved19 and still acts normal “. My mistake on the date of the trip report. Just not used to someone posting something 5 months later. Well spotted so give yourself a pat on the back.
When they make that 20-minute prior to landing announcement, cabin crews are usually already performing cabin preparation and checks for landing on a medium/long-haul flight.. That late breakfast was uncomfortable for the passengers AND for the flight attendants !
Wow. Having so many breakfast dishes in so little time. Did you manage to finished them all? If I were you, I think I would pack all the breakfast and eat them when I arrived at destination airport. Lol
Perhaps had a hardware malfunction for Economy breakfast which was clearly very late and rushed. Still to fly A350 but friends rate A350 better than 787 for seat space in Economy. Bit of a long wait before I can test this now ... common virus, time to go!
Pete Armstrong the A350 economy is way better than the 787 economy. The 9 abreast 787 is absolute hell. But since the A350 is wider, It can comfortably fit 9 seats
Excellent trip report! The late breakfast was really puzzling. Qantas used to have QF1 leaving Dubai at a similar time after midnight & on my flight they served breakfast when over Austria and Germany. Not rushed at all.
That's the only time where no one will complain about how fast you eat 😂 I'm also a fast eater and everyone's like slow down, which I find hard to do 😁 but anyway, great video David 😀
Great review as always David and I am glad BA did a pretty good job on this flight...let us all hope the airlines around the world can stay operational during these very tough times. Great views out of Dubai !! They were probably expecting a "hold" before landing...and did not get one....!! Hence the breakfast service being a bit late !! Thanks again mate ...stay safe and stay well !!
I think BA is listening to customers, because I flew to Florida on a very old 777 and it had this really old economy class and since then I haven’t flown long haul BA because it was so disappointing, but it’s good to see the improvements! Great video!
iTech Talk their 777’s are all undergoing refurbishment right now. Nearly all the Gatwick fleet have been done and now they’re doing the Heathrow fleet. Putting in the new business class seats and Panasonic IFE in economy similar to the 747 screens. Main disadvantage is it’s a 3-4-3 rows in economy now instead of 3-3-3
You made a mistake with the terminal. This is terminal 1 of DXB airport and it is the oldest terminal. Terminal 3, concourse A is the newest(used mostly for Emirates a380s)
I've also had problems with BA crew being slow with meals: On my SJC-LHR overnight flight, it took them 80 minutes to hand out pretzels and drinks then another 70 minutes until the dinner. That's 2,5 hours! I wanted to go to sleep early after the meal..
Yes, BA offers a great service in long haul flights, I travelled from Mexico City on a B 787 in Economy and I really liked the experience. But inside Europe they should improve. It’s like flying in Vueling, not as bad as Ryanair but other big companies give you a better service inside Europe.
I feel like their economy seats is a bit smaller than SIA, Thai and Cathay's A350 economy seats. Not sure if I'm right. And I guess you forgot to do a lavatory inspection. Btw, always a great trip report.
Brilliant trip report. The cabin was very new and modern. Legroom is not very good in my opinion, but still OK. I'm quite surprised that they served breakfast very late

Great trip report. Always wanted to try BA A350. So surprised that the crew started the breakfast so late. Guess they have to work more on time management next time or at least pay attention to the flight time. To those who cannot finish their breakfast, it's really pity for them.
Da ich noch nie in DXB war, schätze ich das BA ein anderes Terminal als Emirates nutzt. Es sah jedenfalls viel unspektakulärer aus... Das mit dem Skytrain und der Konzentration der Passagiere auf einen Zug kenne ich aus DUS. Das späte Frühstück ist also bei BA normal? Ein cooler Vlog.

The cabin looks big and spacious. I'm amazed how quiet the A350-1000 is. That takeoff was so quiet. I can't wait to fly one of these. Thanks for uploading.
It's much wider than a 787 hence it's known to have an eXtra Wide Body(XWB) and yes, it's quiet during cruise
I don't think all of those other passengers realize how special the plane their flying in is...
thats i thought, when i saw the name of video.... what a lucky had that persons....
its probably because they don't really care about the aircraft model, they just want to get to their destination
but not better then the 787 dreamliner
