EVen warmer in the plane it think it was 24+ degrees

David went above and beyond to make our flight the best that it could be

Delays from united along with Newark air space caused delays. But an average flight! Unfortunately we come to expect delays from the airlines.

Checkin was painful and slow! Lady didn’t seem to know what was going on and couldn’t explain the delay. Seemed ahe couldnt see the computer scree and we couldn’t hear her talk through her mask.

Sucks ! All three flights I was on this trip were delayed.

boarding was uneventful. Snack was pathetic. A tiny fruit bar. Entertainment was limited to just select movies on your own tablet or phone. No live TV. I recently flew Jetblue and they had unlimited snacks and live satellite TV the entire flight. My seat was an exit seat, 20A. It was super uncomfortable. It felt cramped and the middle seat was taken up by a large woman who pushed into my shoulder and arm. Horrible flight.

The seat seemed roomy, the service was good, everything was fine.

Liked that we left on time for each flight. Snacks not the best, but we're okay.

Pleasant service from the crew. Arrived early. Efficient boarding and deplaning. Great job!

There was no legroom whatsoever to the point where my wife dropped her phone and was unable to retrieve it as she couldn’t move. The sound system for the entertainment had a broken socket so was effectively out of action as it just crackled. Just dreadful, I will actively avoid BA in the future

I liked having access to all the Harry Potter movies and the food was good. The staff was also excellent. The pillows and blankets could’ve been better as mine had stains when I arrived

Was very bad the cancel the flight after when we arrived to London

Don't fly thru London Awful and huge U need 4 hrs to transfer cuz u have to tale buses to and fro from airplanes Bad business

Comfortable, pleasant staff, quiet, good entertainment, food, drinks. Better than American (flight back) when we were crammed in and staff sometimes indifferent.

It was a one stop flight. What I didn’t realize is that when we landed at London’s Gatwick it was necessary to go through immigration/customs and then go to the departure desk to get a new boarding pass…then pass through security again. There was only a 1 hr/20 min layover which is not nearly enough time to do all that. There were at least 12 people on my flight from Dubrovnik and 7 of them missed the flight to JFK. It was horrendous and British Airways should never have considered it a reasonable thing to do. I, literally, ran the very, very long hallways, up and down escalators and stairs…ran on the moving sidewalks and arrived quite wet from perspiration in time to board. Be sure to give yourself at least 3 hours to make any of those connections at Gatwick.

Business class in Club Europe is basically a slightly larger seat, with the middle seat blocked off. Not really business class, except for the free food/drink - which was also delicious!

Experience was probably the best I’ve had on BA for a long time. Only thing is A380 is old now and it needs upgrading. The en re attainment screens are very small and the touchscreen barely works.

Staff was engaging and helpful. Loved the experience and would definitely recommend them to my friends and family

it didn’t happen!!! they canceled it like 15 hours before the flight and made me find my OWN replacement flight and talk to them for FOUR hours!!!
