TRIP REPORT | British Airways - 747 400 - New York (JFK) to London (LHR) | Economy

- Welcome to another trip report!
On August 9, I flew British Airways from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport to London Heathrow Airport. This was the first leg on my European trip that included flights on Brussels Airlines, Croatia Airlines, Lufthansa, SAS, and Air Greenland! I can't wait to upload those videos soon...
Anyways, British Airways economy product is hit-or-miss in my opinion. When I tried their premium economy product in April, it had some upsides and downsides.
I hope you enjoy this video!

The 747 will always be close to my heart. A timeless classic
Jay Deshpande Yeah same!!!
I agree. Have flown this route several times over the past few years and I love the BA 747s. There is just something majestic about them; the B777 just isn’t the same.
Jay Deshpande amen brother amen
Its sad that BA have since got rid of them all.
the 747 has been cash for clunker 2 years ago.
8:20 - 8:23 the best shot of whole video: the all beacon amd taxiway lights flashing, the airplanes, the sunset, and the music. God it´s perfect

Definitely
Si true
So sad that the 747 will be missed, it did a remarkable job thank you for your service
The spotting at JFK was awesome!
For an “ aging 747 “, the “ol Gal looks pretty good - Here’s to the Queen of the Skies !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Adam Daniel No plane can beat the 747.
I have not flown on British Airways, but had been on 747-400s with Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, China Airlines, Malaysia Air, and China Easters. All were great in-flight experiences.
The most enjoyable Trip Reports! Can't get any better 😆
Thanks for another great trip report Quintin. Magical views at and during the ascent from JFK.
london tour reminds me of when I was there....way back in the 80s..during my 2 week reserve tour at RAF Mildenhall
I just love this video great music big planes and sunset at jfk can't get any better
Love this sunset takeoff and music
The 747, one of the greatest airliners ever built! RIP
Well done! I love the 747! Your vlogs are among the best since you create an ambience with music and special effects. ✈️👍👏
The Queen of the Skies! An all time classic
Great trip report as always 👍
The old 747 is still my favorite airliner! So regal looking!
Keep up the great work:)
just want to say, after watching you almost 2 years you are doing a very professional presentation....I love it Q :)
This is my first video I’ve seen of yours and I really enjoy the way you report. Airport, other classes and your seat and just overall easy and comprehensive review. Subscribed for sure 👍🏾
I remember when I went on BA economy and I loved it!
Brody Swiatek so 20 years ago?
Beautiful views of NYC and Long Island!!!! I love the British Airways livery. Next time I fly overseas I would like to sit in the Upper Deck!!!
Love your camera work, I can tell you love the planes. Awesome outside view too!
Something about the 747 that's just so...eye-catching
3:00 that sound when you board a 747 always gives me excitement. I wonder where it comes from
APU maybe? idk :P
Most deffo! That sound (of the APU) that you hear when you're on the airbridge near the door is such an exciting thing! it makes my tummy butterflies jump...if that makes any sense?! Nothing like it, and only really works with a 747 don't you think?
There's certain emergency motor operation in the jet engine that allows to power the 747, otherwise there will not have power.
Your footage of the London Bridge and Thames River, and the castle are well put together. The music is a nice touch as well. I was in London for about 5 days in May 2019 and loved it. Amazing views, and different than America. I also flew with British Airways, and thought they did a nice job. I'd love to go back to Europe one day, and your videos give me a glimpse of traveling, which is nice. Keep up the good work 👍
Really awesome colours on taxi for takeoff and amazing views after the takeoff!
Ah..good to see the beautiful 747 still shining bright :)
The sunrise on departure 😍😍
Its sunset
Thanks for recording the sites of London, that was very special
😍
Some great plane spotting at the start !! Thanks for the take off vision and sound...loved it !! Pretty good flight with BA by the look of it and some reasonable leg room at the back of the bus!! Well done as always and I look forward to your next adventure !!
Thank you! I appreciate it Craig
I flew to Florida from Gatwick in the summer on a Virgin 747 (economy), frankly, it looked pretty much identical to BA. You get a seat, you get some food, you get some entertainment on a small screen in front of you, it takes hours.
Nice trip. The 747 is still the best passenger aircraft to this day.
I’m going on a flight from London to New York 747 British Airways Economy and I have never been on British so I immediately went to you and surprisingly you made a video about it yesterday.
Yes mine too. Travelled from Jamaica to London, sat upstairs.
Brilliant 9.5 hrs.
Quentin, your photography at JFK before takeoff and also during the climb out was fantastic! I think it may be the best you have done so far! Keep up the good work! Take care and Happy Travels! ♥️🛫🌐
In late 1996 my family and I flew from Heathrow to Santiago de Chile in a brand new 747-400, also on British Airways. It would be too much of a coincidence if that plane was still around...
You've come along with your trip reports. Very nice.
Looks like you really enjoyed the flight. So lucky!
I legit thought this was simply aviation but it isn’t
Yeah, so did I :P not used to flights outside of the US
Honestly I sometimes get confused between the two of them since their logos look similar.
lol
both are great
@@brandonmmmmmmmm3293 true
I flew that airline and plane to Amsterdam Schipol last year. Terminal 7 isn't especially comfortable, but I felt it exuded a quirky charm. Both outbound and return flight segments were enjoyable, even in main cabin - staff were incredibly kind and helpful.
Dude your plane spotting and trip reports are relley good
I always like your intro song it’s so good and I like the song when your were going in a car to terminal
Love your videos man!
I flew out of LHR to SIN on SQ on 9th August 😊 great video and really super shots of depart during sunset - subscribed
Interesting flight! as always, removed and mounted at a good level.
Cool video. I have done the SFO-LHR route several times on BA, and to your point, it was very hit-or-miss. When they were still flying the 747-400's, it was mostly a miss in Economy. However, since the A380's came online for that route, it was a definite hit for me--I paid a little more and always got one of the aisle and window seat pairs in the last couple of rows on the upper deck.
as always.....thanks for sharing your trip with us Q :)
Always an awesome property coming from QFS!
London is such a great place!
hi qman. i sure do like your reports, they are awesome! thanks for sharing. fly safe my friend.
Love the colour grading 👍
Great video. Especially like the 🌇 views of Manhattan and that shot of the wing (15:00) with the stars was awesome.
Flight looked packed.
Read somewhere (Business Insider)?, that JFK-LHR is the only billion $ route in the world.
Amazing when you think about it.
Looking very nice on the 747-400. Fly safe always...
Great report. Thanks for sharing
Looks a lot better inside than when I went down to Miami on one of there 747-400’s in premium economy the seat was mainly held together with tape !
Thank you....Fly safe always..
Great report man! Keep them coming!
Thank you Nate
Excellent. Thank you from London.
Thanks!
Aging but still nice looking!! One of my favorite liveries is the fairly new Southwest livery. I also like Scandinavian Airlines.
Top notch editing!
I like the BA livery, especially that curved ribbon ...
Great Job! wow you have really gotten professional and kudos for keeping it Aviation oriented. I feel like most of the other big aviation bloggers have sold out, they all speed up the takoff and barely show any footage that aviation fans love..
Great stuff 👍..but I'm wondering what end of Heathrow airport did you land at ??
A previous video I watched had a similar landing..
Omg we are flying from London to Miami in like 2 days and I'm freaking excited cause this plane is HUGEEEE FR
love it!
A WORK OF ART! That's what this video is. =D
1st time watching your video and good job. Love the 747 and for a older plane it looks it good shape. Bummer BA did not offer a better Breakfast for an International Flight. Till the next video and thanks!
Queen the skies 🇬🇧👑 B744
Queen of The air.
sick trip report!! Love your videoing
Nice review. Cheers!
The seat looks very well cushioned!!
excellent video
Thank you
The app Flight Radar is so good
Omg I can’t get over the views so pretty 😍😍😍
great video and report. which camera you use on the city close ups ?
i got the tail numbers of the plane from flightradar and planespotters helped me thats because southwest airlines has the same flight number from previous flights and tracked it coming in all my flights arrived early
Legs again! ❤️❤️❤️
Awesome video
Fantastic video!
Very informative video mate!l think some these 747s have been refurbished as far as l know.
Not a big fan of BA though,but,on the plus side,great to see the 747s in service👍!
Oh man, i hope you‘ll do LH‘s First Class soon😄
Can‘t wait to see ya hanging out in one of their F Lounges ✌️
I’d like to eventually take the flight from JFK-FRA
I really do like the boeing 747! 😀
Love this video 😁 I’m looking into London to NYC for March 2021 & taking my parents & brother. I’ve never been & my parents have never been and I want them to experience it at least once in a lifetime. It’s gonna be expensive (may need a little loan) lol but it’ll be worth it 🙂🙏🏼
Awesome lovely viewing nice to see other queen virgin
Great video : )
Nice one!
9:50 What a view of londom wow!
The Queen of the sky forever
That B747 is a year younger than me (I was born in 1995). Anyways, love your videos. Greetings from Chicago
nice video on an vintage 747! Do you mostly travel by yourself or often together with your boyfriend?
Good review of your flight. Looks like a doable trip.
Thanks! It was definitely doable, just a bit uncomfortable
Let us salute the inventors of this amaaazing technology every time we are airborne...
Thanks QFS !!!
So beautiful 😍😍😍
U r the best man

Ever stayed at the TWA hotel? Just went there recently. Really awesome, exceeded ALL expectations
Yes! It's like nothing else.
This flight 747-400 holds a record of fastest flight as it touches 825miles/hour to cross atlantic ocean.
My best BA flight was from Miami to London on a 747-4 , Buissness class
Nice!
