British Airways Embraer 190

This was an evening flight from Glasgow to London City on the day of the storm down south on 28th October. BA had cancelled some Glasgow flights earlier in the day, including a couple on the LCY route and this must have affected this flight because the load was quite light. I checked in online ...

LCY - MAD; AGP - LCY Economy This was a holiday trip on the Cityflyer Spanish routes from LCY. I have to say the Embraer's are very comfortable for economy seats, especially if you are hear the front as the pitch is the same as CE all the way back to the exit row. I have recently flown CE also ...

Edinburgh to London City. Excellent legroom on this new airliner with a smart look to the interior. A glass of wine and a snack were just about appropriate on this 7pm flight, but if you've been stuck in meetings all day this might not be enough. Otherwise pretty faultless, speedy boarding ...
