Good review. I'm not motivated to pay BA a hefty premium for a marginally better experience, for just a few hours. I have, however, upgraded to a Premium seat on a Tui Dreamliner long-haul flight. The upgrade, sold in-resort by the Tui rep, cost about £100 and that was, undoubtedly, very good value-for-money.

I think it's worth it for long haul flights! Especially if you're traveling with children, the elderly or anyone with special needs. If it is off season you may actually have a good shot of upgrading from economy to premium economy for less money by doing so "last minute" (48 hours or less before your flight) on the airline's app , by calling or asking at the gate. It always helps to have & use mileage points too :)

Hi Greg, great information thank you 🙌 I had heard that premium economy was fattening the profit margins 😂 In a lot of cases airlines are offering 20% more seat room and service than economy but are getting away with charging 50% more per ticket. Great for BA if they can get it 😂 Thank you for watching and have a great week😄

The BA777 has 10 inches of recline in premium economy which is quite of a lot. On the one hand it makes it more comfortable to sleep in the seat, but on the other hand it really hampers the passenger behind. Economy has 5 inches of recline. That said, the pitch is 7 inches greater in premium economy so even with the additional 5 inches of recline, you still have 2 inches more room in premium vs economy when the passenger in front is reclined fully.

The cup of tea in a paper cup is the killer for me. I recently did the SAS premium to NYC from Stockholm. They did the same thing with the first drink being served in plastic. While the main course drinks had glassware. So it seems standard. I picked the front row window to avoid the recline issue. All in all, OK for a day flight. The return I had booked in Biz as it was overnight. Of the price is right, premium is not bad. But, it will never feel premium enough, if you’re used to biz. The bonus with the SAS premium was that lounge / fast track and biz check in was offered. Haven’t seen that in other airlines. Also, your 2nd meal looks like economy. But. UK to Doha is shorter than Stockholm to NYC.

Very good review.

Hi Kevin, I really wouldn’t like to trade down from business into premium 🤦‍♂️😂 Thank you for watching and have a great weekend 😁

I mostly use companion vouchers and Avios to fly business class on BA but if I have to pay then it's WTP. I do this to avoid having to sit next to a stranger for 9 hours or longer when it's me and the missus! As far as I can tell all long haul BA aircraft have a minimum block of 3 in economy. Would probably be cheaper to just pay for 3 economy seats and use the outer 2 but not sure if you can do that? No way the extra space and food / drinks is worth the extra cost for WTP so it's the block of 2 that decides it for me. An even bigger waste of money is Club Europe which doesn't even have any extra legroom and just the middle seat blocked out. So the lost seat justifies a 50% higher price, plus the meal and drinks - another £25?? Club Europe seats are way more expensive than that multiplier!

I tend to sit at the back of the cabin. At least there, I can recline as soon as possible for all the flight and don't have to fret about reclining into anyone. Probably have someone recline in front of me 50% of the time - not so bad on the aisle, but the fixed centre console does make getting out of the window awkward. And the TV is pretty much in your face. To be honest 90TP instead of 20-35TP? in economy for a LHR-SFO flight makes it worthwhile for me. I'll often start in Europe where prices can be a good £400+ cheaper than starting in say London. There's little difference in food, drink, toilets and service over economy (or business a lot of time to be honest) although the seat, especially compared to very cramped economy on a 787, is a Godsend.

You always forget to mention the extra baggage you are allowed. We flew to TLV and had planned on flying Economy, then we looked at adding the extra luggage we needed to take and this was going to whack on nearly £160 per person, so we looked at PE and for the same amount of money, we had all that extra space, excellent food and we had plenty of luggage allowance for our extra baggage. So yes PE is worth the extra money with BA. IF you want Lounge access and fast track fly with Virgin and add another few hundred £££'s. But it's Subjective, what I found suitable and good value, you may not. We did have the issue of the Reclining person in front of us and the crew were pretty swift at telling them to put their seat up to let people out and one even reclined her seat just before food service, again the crew were not shy at telling her to put her seat up. We would use PE again but we have opted for Business class this next trip, it was supposed to be on an A350 with club suites but the whole route has been downgraded to Club Europe which is pretty annoying, but at least they haven't downgraded our tier points, so we are still hitting Silver with 1 trip and then Gold with the second one in December.

All they care about is profit (f&&k the customer) as they have taken away ALL the services that made them different. If you fly economy in the UK, you get a ridiculously crammed seat, a "cardboard tasting" energy bar and the smallest bottle of water you've ever seen. They are simply no better than all the other airlines, but they have the routes so we continue to use them. I'd rather not, by the way, but very little/no choice from Aberdeen! Oh - just a personal point, don't we all just detest those a88holes who always recline their seat? In the main, no reason for it. Absolutely pi88es us off.

Hi, I totally agree with you. I've tried one of those awful cardboard energy bars you mentioned. Sadly, it feels like here in the UK, there's a race to the bottom when it comes to anything involving transportation, including trains and roads 🤦‍♂️

@@tradingplaces787 could not agree with you more, awful food, what happened to a meal on a plane, like it used to me, all BA do is take cost out and make it as miserable as they can

Nice review, but what an awful welcome from the BA crew as you stepped on the aircraft. Pathetic customer service.

Hi, I didn’t think much of it at first as I was in the moment but I’ve had a few comments saying the same thing and looking back I totally understand why 👍 Thank you for watching and have a great weekend 😄

Business class sucks. Yes I have had the misfortune of doing it. Crap food, crap service, rude staff. It’s certainly not like it was years ago when flying was a pleasure. They’ve got your money they don’t care. By the way Virgin is even worse.
