    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!

      ​@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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
