    I really don't know what Russians are good for the planet? People should be able to guess what I am talking about.

    Wow, that's the first time I have seen lightning hitting the plane from so near. It's cool, but also quite dangerous; the plane had been climbing for only a few minutes when it hit. For a 10-hour flight, a meal and a snack were not enough. That legroom didn't look so comfortable even on a 5-hour flight

    Yeah the poor gentleman in the middle seat next to me was visibly struggling with the tight legroom

    I flew this same route with the same plane and it felt like we were sardines in a can. Online check in in their app had a bug because it didn't honor the seats that we chose when we purchased the flight few months earlier. That's why I will never fly Cathay again. Disgusted with how the ground crew at LHR and customer service handled our concern. Good to know there are other airlines that fly on these route. Never again Cathay.

    Buddy you complain about the food on this flight. You were Economy cattle hauler section. If you wanted better should have gone Premium Economy. I don't know why you flyer's complain about the flights when you book the cheapest seat. You want better service pay the little extra which is not a lot difference price and fly Premium. Trust me you'll enjoy flight more and be better rested.

  • @oryxflyer
    @oryxflyer3 ай бұрын

    If you've experienced cattle class enough, you would know when your food is considerably worse in comparison to other airlines. In this instance it seems perfectly reasonable to flag complaints because people would be less likely to pick BA if the quality is considerably worse than the likes of CX, EK, QR or any other airline for that matter on the same route.

  • @jonathanscott550
    @jonathanscott5503 ай бұрын

    @@oryxflyer Agreed it all depends what airline your are flying with and the route. What I am saying Economy Class is the lesser option no matter what airline and how good or bad the food service is. Premium Economy is better still, then Business Class ect ect. I've had meals Economy Eva Air, Cathay Pacific and they were actually very good. And again I've flown then regional flights and food service was poor. BA is like Air canada their Economy Class is poor no argument there.

    60% load, perhaps caused by an overkill price, but it is the largest Airbus A350, with an A350-800 the occupancy would have been much better.

    Don’t forget the -1000 has a higher cargo capacity too and that Amsterdam is a major freight hub hence why it’s deployed there.

    Max AT winglet is Massive. It’s not as tall as the blended or the skimitar but is definitely larger in other ways. Completely changes the look and vibe of the wing although it uses the same wing as the NG.
