Hey Everybody!
I know it's been a while, but I promise the next few articles are worth it.
I'm in the U.S.A. right now, and on my way here I used British Airways (BA). For the past year I've been hearing of BA's new club world and since I only went to Europe in 2007 I saw no changes to the seats. The only thing that did change were the blankets they used; however, on my flight from London Heathrow to Phoenix Arizona I finally saw the new sleeper seats!
The sleeper seats are SO MUCH more comfortable. Even the footstool is better. You can stretch like a cat especially if you're as tall as I am (for a girl). There are so many angles to sit, sleep or lie down AND you can not only pump up your lumbar area but you can also pump up the pillow/head area as well.
EVERYTHING is easier to get too. The TV, the table, the remote control EVERYTHING. You have an electric socket to plug in for your laptop. There is a drawer to put your laptop or other things you'd like to store for the trip. The TV is touch screen FINALLY. You can play, pause, rewind, forward, and you have so many choices other than movies such as news, tv, games etc. My flight was 11 hours so it was so nice to finally see that on BA. I thought I was going to go crazy on the flight, but luckily I was well entertained. Even my niece was shocked that I only got 20 mins sleep.
I have to say that I have been very disappointed with BA lately; however, this flight was much better than my previous experience in December. I have sworn off BA in the near future though until they get their act together.
Back to the positive, I watched a really good movie during the flight and my critique will be out on it soon.
Adios for now!
