LHR – OSLO BERGEN – LHR This was a weekend leisure trip in CE, bought in the sales for a very good deal. So perhaps this does not give me a reason to complain, but I won’t let it stop me. Check-in/Security Online check in both times, which went smoothly, although I had to pick up ...

Zurich – Bangkok return, Business Class Pre-flight On outbound, connecting flight from LCY landed early, affording an easy transfer to the E pier in Zurich. Panorama lounge was disappointing; very little food or drink options, noisy and full due to many late evening departures. This was a ...

LHR – SEA; YVR – LHR in Club World This was originally a WP+ ticket that was upgraded to CW, outbound by Avios, and return for what I assume was operational reasons. A note on upgrades. I had purchased tickets back in the summer, at which point there was no availability for the Avios ...

BA 767 LHR - CAI return in Club World (sorry this is not the LCY flight; but that is the only option for long haul on 767) Overall I was fairly pleased with my rather short long haul flight to Cairo this week, but it in no was justifies the cost. Some thoughts: LHR - CAI Departed from ...

British Airways Economy (short haul)

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 ...

LCY – ZRH – LCY - BA Club Europe LCY – ZRH leg I took advantage during the BA sale to bag a £200 return trip in CE to Zurich on BA from LCY. There are no lounge facilities at LCY, but boarding was quite quick after a short delay due to a late incoming flight. No special boarding ...

LHR - IAD Business This was a rather full flight, and I had only managed to reserve ahead of time a middle seat in a 2-4-2 business class configuration. Fortunately at online check in a window seat became available, and I nabbed it. United requires everyone flying to the US to pick up their ...

LHR - LAX I was upgraded from WTP to Business at check-in due to a full flight in back, so I should be more grateful... but... I was given an aisle in the middle section on the lower deck, with two children next to me. In the row ahead was a man with a baby. It was the beginning of Easter ...
