Seats were comfortable, but boarding was the worst I've ever seen. Way too much walking to get onboard as we had to go up & down steps several & then bus took us halfway around the airport for boarding & had to board outside after a very long bus rood.
Crew were fantastic and the aircraft was extremely comfortable, but outdated. Headphone jacks were worn out and sound normally only came out of one ear unless positioned just right.
The Britts are wonderful to fly with and the crew were very hospitable. Again, I really wish they had been able to retrieve my carryon bag from baggage claim before the flight so I could be in a less worrisome state of mind, but that's not on them. I completely understand. The window seats with the dimmable windows were very cool!
Flight was delayed by over two hours and that meant my connecting flight was in jeopardy but there was no acknowledgement or help from the BA staff
The seats were comfortable. So many empty seats allowed for stretching out and sleeping. The onboard entertainment was pretty good. The cabin crew were so kind and kept the passengers well- hydrated, and well fed.
I gave a very poor review for th flight over (Pitt to London) due to terrible seat comfort. Different plane on the way back and it was much better. The flight was delayed over an hour taking off but only landed about 15 minutes late.
Entertainment was good. Food was OK. Cab crew was great.
Poor technical details on this plane. 1) There was no WiFi on an 8 hour long-haul flight. So no work could be done. That's below the standard expected for airlines these days. 2) The power outlet at my seat was busted and not working. 3) The headphone jack was loose and I had to keep adjusting my headphones to get good reception, or when it slipped out. - The flight was delayed to due mechanics. Sometimes this can't be avoided, I understand, and it's a big inconvenience to arrive that much later when traveling across time zones (then arriving at 4am from the prior time zone). - Also unique to this flight, the northern lights were visible on the right side of the aircraft, but I only found out after we landed (b/c again no wifi). I understand there are considerations about people being out of their seats to look, but I feel extremely disappointed and resentful that I wasn't told so that I could have a chance to look at this probably once-in-a-lifetime cosmic event from a view in the sky. - Flight crew was otherwise friendly and helpful.
It’s such a short flight with so many people it’s hard to see the positives. I have so much more to write about the next flight to Pittsburgh. I upgraded my seat to business class and expected so much from it as I’ve never flown business before. It was quite expensive to do so but I have autism and sensory issues I felt it was needed. The seats were ok but the cabin crew spent around 3 hours in the middle talking loudly about what they were going to do in Pittsburgh for 2 nights. They obvs want people to try and sleep in the middle stint but they just kept opening and closing the overhead bin above my seat so they could get out their chocolates and sweets. Very unpleasant and unprofessional imo. Is it worth the money?? If I’m just taking it off this (my one and only experience) then no definitely not. No wifi on the flight either even though it was advertised.
The passenger next to me was a large man who should have been required to buy 2 seats. He boarded early with people who needed extra time because he had to try and fit in the seat. He was actually partly on my seat and his leg into my space for my bag under the seat. It was a very cramped 8 hours
