NOTES
Once again we are on British Airways this time aboard one of their Boeing 777s the backbone of BAs fleet. Up until this flight I had never flown on a 777 and I was excited to get on one for the first time. Overall it was a great flight! Despite the plane being 20+ years old it was in great condition. The seats and overall comfort was better than the Dreamliner I took but it did get a little uncomfortable in the final hour or two. The food and service was better coming home like it usually is which was nice to see. It was a good flight overall and British Airways offer a solid economy product so definitely consider them if you’re headed to Europe!

I flew on that plane once from yvr to lhr

[@isaacmacdonald6530]

I was on that flight 3 days prior on G-YMMP. Arrival Gate was B25 and BA289 always arrives at Gate B25 at Terminal 4 in Phoenix.

I like the 777, I fly it at least a couple of times a year going to Brasil. Nice aircraft. I like big aircrafts. The 747 was my favorite aircraft.
I'm looking forward to flying the A380 to LHR next September. Glad you had a good time. Happy travels.

great video. How was the seat comfort and customer serrvice? Did you check in a bag? What was the weight

[@bayareaaviation17]

The seat was alright. After 7-8 hours it does get uncomfortable. The service was great. LHR staff and crew were real nice. I did check a bag but I don’t remember the weight

[@ryanthomas49]

How come you didn't show your lunch?

[@rayc9539]

All the gates at Heathrow and you had to use a remote stand ?

[@bayareaaviation17]

So many planes at Heathrow but few gates it seems
