Plane: 787-10
Seat: 48B
Cost: 30K Avios
The plane in the opening scene may not be a dash 10 Dreamliner, but I liked the footage, so I used it anyway!
The 787-10 is the largest variant of Boeing's popular Dreamliner widebody and British Airways just firmed up an order to add even more to their fleet. This is exciting news for an airline who had a rocky introduction to the dash 10, as a few ended up in storage right after they left the assembly line. British airways is only operating this aircraft to a handful of cities and I was lucky enough to find myself seated on one after a nice two week trip to Europe. Come along with me as we check out this sleek new aircraft on a flight from London (LHR) to Newark (EWR) in Economy!
You can find unedited takeoff and landing footage of this flight on NYC Flyer Plus.

We are flying this plane in a couple of weeks from ewr to LHR and back. We got the same two-seater but on on the other side. Thank you for making this video. I am glad I got to choose those seats!
Enjoy your trip!
Thank you!Great review!
Thank you 🙏
Very informative...Thanks
👍🏻
cool video NYC! I was thinking about doing this route in business class or premium economy!
Awesome! Although I thought economy was fine. It’s a relatively short flight.
Heathrow is giant to me. Had a long layover there and I was shocked how long it took to transfer to my next terminal
Yeah, Heathrow is definitely a big airport. They have some cool airlines there, so I always enjoy flying through LHR and doing some plane spotting.
Great video like always, I see they're still using those "pillows". lol
Beautiful video ! The "Rice Salad" is Couscous.
Thanks!
I thought BA was catered by Do & Co. They are supposed to be really good. That food did not look too appetizing. By the way, congrats on your wedding!❤✈
Thank you! Yeah, I think they’re still using Do & Co, but it was not good.
I travelled three times to UK to visit family last year. Last time we took the two seats on the opposite side from yours. 48H and J. The space between the seat and the window made it difficult see outside. Anyway it was the red eye to LHR so not much to see. The toilets are directly behind so it was a bit noisy but not smelly. I always order a south Asian meal as it's tastier and is served before the usual fare. That space is good for storing carry ons but was reprimanded for stacking it there and had to put it under my seat.
Does row 48 full recline on the 787-10?
8:30 A350 every time ❤❤
Great video as always👍, the 787-10 is really nice. What a rude woman taking the whole bin for herself, I don't know if I could let her get away with that😅😂
Thanks for watching! She definitely felt very entitled.
@nycflyertravel Unfortunately, "creatures" like her are way too prevalent nowadays. As a lifelong commercial aviation geek, I have lost much of my desire to fly these days because of the rudeness of so many passengers. I find myself booking sleeping compartments on Amtrak or VIA Rail when traveling in the States and Canada these days. Still waiting for an "undersea trans-Atlantic train to Europe". 😂😂😂
I'm taking this flight, Newark to Heathrow on the BA 787-10 on Halloween this year! I will look at grad schools for my MBA; this will be my third time in the UK. I was in London in August of 2022 and flew from JFK to Heathrow on American and back on BA. I love BA and it's always a treat flying to Europe out of Newark.
Have a great trip Justin 👍🏻
@@nycflyertravel Thanks man, great review btw.
@@nycflyertravel I forgot to mention, I'm from NJ and I work in the financial sector of advertising in NYC. I'm actually a pilot who has been flying since I was 15. I hope to work in the business sector of aerospace one day after grad school. I really want to work for Airbus. I started training at Embry Riddle and completed most of my training in Sarasota. Aviation content like yours is convincing aspiring pilots and aviation enthusiasts to see the world. Keep up the good work!
@@justinwilcox6853 wow thank you and best of luck!
What date did you film, what's thre registration, is your flight to Newark 75 to 90% full, is that your 1st time flying British airways, Boeing 787-10, how is it and how much did you pay to fly British airways to Newark?
New traveler to British airways. What’s the best seat to take for economy
Is BA competing with United 787-10 between EWR and LHR?
You are good at this, and I enjoyed and appreciated your video. I sure wish you hadn't let that disgusting heifer get away with bullying the carry-on stow-away. But, again, I like your work!
Haha thanks Joseph! My blood was definitely boiling 🤬
@@nycflyertravel I imagine it was! I probably would have ended up being arrested!
@nycflyertravel do you remember the flight number by any chance?
@@virtualAviator159 Sorry to be late with this. Flight #...the one I will have in September? or are you thinking I already went?
@@josephcollins6033 I was actually asking nycflyertravel. I'm going on this route in October, just booked my flight. First time visiting USA looking forward to it
4:42- Hiya, that's called "Couscous" and a lot of british people like it :)
in future flight ticket available can low price ???
I had that on the a350 I put my bag there the entire time on the side
That’s cool that they have that on their A350 too
Let me guess they did this to compete with United Airlines Virgin Atlantic flights one and two were to come back which was actually their inaugural service back in 1984 you would have seen this happen if people can afford the British airlines over UA Polaris. then you'll have this result BA Oneworld Alliance First/Club World = VS Skyteam Alliance Upper Class > UA Polaris. You do see that result when going to Germany & Switzerland from EWR LH403 EWR-FRA LH413 EWR-MUC = LX19 EWR-ZRH > UA960/30/134.
We are flying on a BA 787-10 from Seattle to London. I'm considering one of the two-seaters ($112 a seat) by the window for possible extra legroom. I'm 6'4. Not sure if the armrest raises or if it's even possible to stretch my legs out in that extra space. It would be Row 47 on Seat Guru.
Hmm I’m not sure those seats really offer more legroom. Maybe you could get an emergency exit seat.
I know it's a 31" seat pitch throughout economy but I thought I could stretch my legs out in that open space in front of me if I grab a window seat@@nycflyertravel
I flew from Toronto to London via 787 on BA
👍🏻
Does row 48 fully recline on the 787-10?
They reclined, but not as much as other rows if I remember correctly
I flew EWR-LHR with them, but they changed it to a dash 9 last second and the flight was miserable lol
That’s too bad. Hopefully you can try out their dash 10 sometime soon.
@@nycflyertravel i did on the return flight 😁
How was the recline on that last row?
It was a bit limited to be honest
Great video, my friend! I always love traveling with British Airways. Sorry about your experience with the entitled passenger (they always frustrate me while flying). I have to say though, Heathrow Terminal 5 seems to have a bit of an empty feel nowadays, with the Queen of the Skies having been retired during the pandemic. But a nice experience, nevertheless!
Thanks for watching! Heathrow will never be the same without BA’s 747. I’m glad they brought back their A380s though.
@@nycflyertravel Indeed! I look forward to trying their A380 soon, as it's on my bucket list
Were they strict on checked baggage. How was the customer service
I think they let us get away with an extra pound in our checked bags. The staff at the airport was nice.
@@nycflyertravel lol you mean a kilogram. I got away with 24.8 kg on virgin atlantic from jfk to lhr. Just got a heavy tag
Thanks for another objective and comprehensive review. Belated congratulations on your marriage 🎉. I remember you flew with your "girlfriend" down to Charleston not that long ago.🤔. Take care and have a great weekend.
Thank you! We were actually in the UK for our wedding. I’m planning on posting a video on that later.
@@nycflyertravel Fantastic! Best wishes to both of you. I assume she enjoys flying as much as you do. Will be looking forward to your upcoming videos.
Sitting all the way in the back, doesn't the laboratory smell bother you? And isn't turbulence the worst in the back of the plane?
I didn’t have any issues
Rough timestamp 3:07 “…does have overhead lights but no air-vents…” even Allegiant Air provides overhead lights and air-vents. Allegiant Air is a ULCC and British Airways is a flag carrier. What?
I wish all airlines installed air vents. It really makes things much more comfortable.
Fly virgins a330 900 neo from London to new york
It’s on my list 👍🏻
I dislike it when the people in front recline without asking and you have the back to their seat virtually in your face. Makes using the IFE impossible and difficult to eat. Rude.
I will recline as long as the passenger behind me isn’t eating. You don’t have to ask.
@@Savethemanuals94 Rude and inconsiderate. Hope I never have the misfortune of having you sit in front of me.
@@Savethemanuals94 As a matter of courtesy and convenience I never recline my seat. I will often ask the passenger in front of me to please move their seat upright. It doesn't hurt to ask.
