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.
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.
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. 😀
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
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 !
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.
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 😀
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
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.
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)
That's wrong information, UAE has 9 million and London has around 8 million people. Also, many people who live in UAE like Indians and Pakistanis, don't get citizenship and are not showed officially. The amount of people living in UAE is a lot more.
Hi I really appreciate the fact that u have a backlog which means we can continue to watch amazing trip reports like this one Thumbs up 👍👍 BTW does ur backlog consist of singapore airlines?
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.
The Y class seats look a bit ‘hard’ I hope the comfort was okay as you mentioned. And yes the breakfast service you had was extremely late. Thanks for the review 👍
Aviation is now getting low and many airlines getting low mony and dept and let's pray to the lord and hope the virus will stop spreading around. Amen We will pray for you simply aviation
@@Alhy-ls3dv yes same. It's the first airbus i fell for too. Ive never actually flown on one yet. The 747 for me is the ultimate. But the GE90's are never beaten oml
Silly for them to serve food so late in the flight. The aircraft, cabin and IFE look much better and more in keeping with what I would expect from British Airways. Certainly looks like a step in the right direction, particularly after years of mediocre hardware. Still some work to do but very good product from BA at last.
Dubai is quite convenient train wise, they have the peoplemover between the terminals and the Dubai Metro to go into the city. Great nighttime view of Dubai with the Palm. The cabin looks nice
You said it has one of the best economy, it was rated one of the worst. Many cabins still aren't modern and many aircraft are super old. I always prefer to take Norwegian. Cheaper and Value for money
David that was a fantastic review. I believe BA will start the London(LHR)-Bengaluru(BLR) flight with the A350K. Is it confirmed??? Please do try the business class on their A350K
@@pamberinehondo9447 continental breakfast will be just perfect for me..you can enjoy your lovely stuff Other reason for not flying long hull destinations with BA. Take care

I am assuming you aren’t British either so unless your long HAUL destination is London why would they be your choice anyway. You also take care.

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 got major anxiety hearing that landing announcement when he hadn't even started eating
Serving breakfast while already dimming the lights for landing doesn’t seem like a very safe thing to do?
Gregor Kaufmann I know ... ! All the food would go to waste ... would still be BA loss !

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
Ankit Menon stfu “787 Dreamliner”

You were actually right! BA should offer breakfast always one hour before approaching finals. Well! Excellent aircraft and cabin layout. Thanks!
Me:- alright gonna have a relaxing meal
Pilot:- ladies and gentlemen we're about to land
*Cabin light dims*

It's good to hear the chime sound.
I was in the Dubai terminal 1 a while ago and I recognize those places!
A month later, this very aircraft reversed into an Emirates flight damaging its horizontal stabalizer. Crazy

@@simply_aviation do you have Kuwait airways videos???
Hope you are having a good year because of the situation 🤗😊 and can't believe how the crew handle this flight 😆
I hope you'll try Philippine Airlines' A350 but try flying on their longest flight in the world (MNL-JFK)
Great report. I remember my flight with Qatar airways' a350. It was a good experience
VERY well made Video - start to finish - well recorded
The sort of content I LOVE!!
I love the fact that BA served an Arabic dinner and a British lunch
Is seat selection free during the check in ?
Nice British Airways video:)
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.
Looks like flights nowadays don't turn off or dim cabin lights while takeoffs and landing!
I just love the Airbus A350 ❤️❤️🔥
Thanks for another great trip report, David and Felix. Stay safe and sending you much love from Reading in the UK.
Feels like i am traveling .
Good quality
I like tha AIR BUS A350 nice video
Great trip report. 👍
They seemed to serve breakfast a little late.
BA long haul still seems quite good though.
When you guys are able, could you make a review on the KLM long haul flight from amsterdam to osaka kansai?
6:30 noiseless, i think..(engine)
That looks really good. I love the A350 but also love the A380. Meal looked light but tasty and breakfast was good too. BA A350 is really good.
Heathrow is closed between 23:00 pm to 4:00 am. What was the time when they served you the breakfast?
Just what I needed in the morning
The airport at Dubai is incredible
I really like their new seats. In economy and business as well. British Airways really cares about their costumers. I hope you enjoyed your flight.
First comment sir makes nice video and will make nice video may god bless you

On fabrique des avions de plus en plus sophistiqués mais les sièges sont toujours aussi étroit !!!!
When you are first and don't know what to comment
Noiseless, A350 is amazing
Awesome video man
Why u choose always back seat in economy class?
More legroom and it's the safest seat on every plane
I've only had one 'go around'. The airline? BA. The reason? Cabin not cleared in time for landing.
I think the flight is very good!
Breakfast when you are already close to destination airport? (less than an hour). No way.
Gosh I love the A350. What are your thoughts?
An amazing aircraft, the first Airbus I fell for, but the 777 always reign supreme in my heart

Just my opinion: Airbus A350's Trent XWB engines sound is as satisfying as the GE90s :D
Captain Dude I’m glad you said opinion!
Trent: Migos
GE90: Mozart
Kidding!
I’ve been on a red flight from London Heathrow 10:00 pm to Bahrain in which we arrived at 6:00
I wonder if breakfast was so late because of the crew's breaks over running?
