      Philip and Luc Cheers chaps. I’m going slightly stir crazy, I think. Part 2 is even more ‘off the wall’, I think you’ll find. Coming in a couple of days. 🙏☺️

    My wife and I have just returned from a visit to Los Angeles to see family and a visit to Casa Rodentii...
    At time of booking, "Economy Delight" appeared to be a better option than "Premium". Sadly, eleven hours in that seat was anything but delightful... I sat on my memory foam neck rest.... both outbound, and on the return flight.
    We're flying again, to Nassau in April next year,... Depending on who has the best premium package, it might be Virgin.

      Overall I think Virgin is a better product than BA these days. BA really need to improve the details. They’re becoming little more than an expensive budget airline. 😬

    Dreamliner in almost any seat has to be the worst passenger experience of any aircraft currently in service. I personally make every effort to avoid this aircraft where possible. The A350 shows the B789 experience as the bottom of the scale. If I am forced to travel on B789 we automatically take a pair of compressible seat cushions in hand baggage. I hope the pilots seats are more comfortable.
