What's Changed on British Airways? A350-1000 Travel Corridor Flight
I flew with British Airways on an A350-1000 in the new Club World Suite from Dubai to London Heathrow. The trip was to UK to see the last British Airways B747. During the flight, I discover the latest British Airways product and see what’s changed onboard.
Currently there is a travel corridor (air bubble) formed between the UK and the UAE, passengers no longer need to quarantine or self-isolate. This has resulted in a spike in passenger volumes and passenger confidence in travel. My flight was full, with lot of children, families and leisure travellers. I interviewed several passengers about their travel experience.
To my surprise the flight time was exactly 7 hours and 47 minutes, which set a perfect tribute for the last flight of the British Airways 747. Video link: • The Last British Airwa...

This is something I miss doing. I can't wait until the time for me to be back on the plane. Thank you Sam for still posting travel videos and giving us hope.
Sam's flight experiences are always good cos he gets VIP treatment from the airlines. Not the most objective of reviews but it's not his fault.

It is his fault. He gets comp'd everywhere, wears his branded mask and shirts. Make no mistake, this guy's in it for the freebie!
the 747 captain seemed so sad that he didnt fly it anymore
not the flight attendants saying "minimise touch" and then smothering their hands all over it💀💀

Bravo Sam! Great video as always 👍🏻 Merry Christmas from Bangkok! 🥂
Loved this video, Sam. Definitely feel for the airlines and travel industry at-large and appreciate you showing a glimpse of better days to come!
It's so fascinating to watch your videos because you are making so many people fly along with you, who cannot afford to fly. You are doing a great social service.
Seems like a really great crew. So happy for all the flight & cabin crews that are starting to get back in the air.
I was always waiting to be one of the first to watch your videos. Now I got the chance! Another great video and surprising to see so many travellers. Stay safe Sam!
Sam, fantastic video, really loved it and look forward to your vid on the 744!

Yes, the 744 is the star of my trip to UK!
Thanks for coming to Cardiff for this historic flight. I live just up the road. All the best Sam :)
Even when lockdown ends, the major problem for me about travelling isn’t the confidence about COVID safety; but the price of all the tests required to enter different countries.
Love your videos man... I live in Bournemouth in the UK close to where BA stored a large majority of their planes including the 747 during the pandemic. Keep up the AWESOME work
Great video Sam. Can’t wait to Saturday!
Can't wait for the Saturday upload! So sad that I won't be experiencing to ride the queen of the skies ever in my life. :(
Thanks Sam for this beautiful vlog
Can't wait to watch the next episode!
Had the same crew on my dubai flight last week they were great, thank you...!!!
That was an amazing videos thank you so much your videos are awesome
Sam, I would really love it (I'm sure many others would also) If you would include the full takeoff and short final through landing sequences. For us aviation heads that can't get enough it would be great! Love your videos as always!
Sad to see the end of the 747. Great vid Sam.
The A350 and the 787 are definitely the future! Last few on a A350, umm 10-12 months ago! ! really wanna fly now! Also BA flew a A380 to Doha for winter storage!

Sam....I've been grounded for 10 months. I just booked a flight in January. I pretty much only fly BA. I'm lifetime Gold with BA so I'm locked in. But I'm flying the A350 for the first time on all 4 legs of my journey in Jan. I appreciated this preview of what to expect. I never miss one of your videos. I also go through all of the links in your emails. God Bless. Stay Safe. All the Best from Maine USA.

I cant wait to see the 747 BA video! The A350-1000 has such an organised cockpit.
If all goes as planned, I'll be flying with BA for my honeymoon in the summer. Hoping to upgrade to business or first so really great news about the hot food coming back 😍 Thank you for keeping us updated 🖤

Those fight attendants without any eye-protecting goggles or glasses look pretty dangerous.. Air droplets through eyes is one of the main ways of covid infection. As I know plastic gloves and eye PPE are mandatory for crew in other big middle east/ Asian airlines.

Always good to see another video from you Sam. Great to see you back in the skies. I thought the BA cabin crew just looked - quite sad and defeated. Tough times for their industry and for their homeland. Can only hope things get better for them soon.
Good to watch your experiences
So proud to be in Sam's video and people shouldn't be afraid to travel. I felt totally safe throughout the airport, the flights and the measures put in place in all of Dubai. Hit me up at Colletts Travel if you want to know more.

And now The final flight of the queen of the sky. Will be sadly missed😪. Love that 7h 47m

Hi Sam. Nice video. Stay safe in UK. Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🙏
Oh this is awesome Sam. In this covad19.
Good video Sam - great to see UK and UAE travel corridor in full swing. Slightly to late for me after I had to cancel my holiday to Dubai in October. On a negative note - disappointed to see the clip of you talking to the travel agent gentleman with his mask down and you clearly not adhering to social distancing. Granted you had you mask on but no protection of your eyes, skin or clothes.
great job Sam

Yes the aircraft is awesome, the rest well not so good.(I am not talking about the staff, they have an impossible job working for a company called IAG)
I love flying with British airways the cabin crew are so humble and best customer service ..
Was planning a flight this year on A350 but didn't go ahead hopefully soon. Hope you enjoyed your visit to UK and enjoy seeing the last BA 747. I was so glad I got to fly back from Miami last year on 1 as knew it was on borrowed time. Still heartbroken and hasn't sunk in they've retired them. 12:35 was also probably the last Virgin Atlantic B747-400
Nice video Sam please make video on indigo airlines
Good video
merry christmas and a happy new year al the way from suriname,paramaribo
Thank you so much.....
11:01 the cloud looks amazing
Both cockpit and cabin crews on BA are always top notch!
Sam, I really liked the design on the mask you are wearing at the start of this video. And the menu in the meal boxes by British Airways really look great. Seriously I can't wait a long haul flight with British Airways, say a transatlantic one between two of my most favorite destinations in the world- London and New York
And stay cool and stay safe THANK YOU
Fantastic
