  • In November 2022, I flew with Steve on British Airways to Nassau for a holiday in the Bahamas.
    We were originally booked in Club World on the BA Boeing 777 plane, and I was excited about flying on and reviewing the new Club World Suites, but an unexpected seat change put paid to that.
    Here's what happened instead.

    What luck! Though to be honest i probably prefer the business seats on the A350 with those great sliding doors.

      Thanks! Given the First Class section was not exactly crowded, I wasn't bothered by the lack of doors at the end. Even the old First Class seat/bed is still a bit wider and more comfortable than even the new Club World Suite.

    These are definitely the old 1st class seats. I took a 1st class 777 last month & it had the closed doors. The food was awesome & such polite staff. Thank god I'm small bc I had soooo much room.

    They do this on the Caribbean run if not operating a First Service. Ive had it down to Grenada twice. Its business service but First cabin. Always appricate the extra room 🙂 Full First on BA is a solid product. Concorde Room is worth a stop of a couple of hours 🥂😎😂

      But we haven't missed out on a visit to Concorde Room, have we? Because even though we'd been moved to First Class, the boarding pass still said Club World, so I don't think we could have got into CCR based on that.

    An upgrade is nice, though I would have preferred a door for more privacy. I've noticed that beef served near the beginning of a flight is often quite good, but later in the flight it's likely to be overcooked, dry and tough.

    • @KenTravels360
      @KenTravels360  Рік тому +1

      I thought the same as first, but after experiencing it, the First Class bed is wider and you do get more space overall, so I am not gonna complain about it. Re beef, maybe sitting at row 1 and getting served first was what made the beef much more tender! Thanks for your comment.

    Your seat is not the club world seat it’s the first class seat. Heloooooo. But the first class is a lot more comfortable- softer. British Airways is doing a lot of this on some of its routes if they have a full flight club world they will place the gold Members into first class with a club world service I personally think it’s great as it’s just happened to me.

      Don't overlook the fact that this is a triple 7 with the oldest first class seats. This is the weakest first class hard product on the BA fleet and is, itself, being replaced with a suite with a door. Whilst they don't have doors (yet?), the existing first class cabins on BA A380s - and particularly the 787s - are far superior. The soft product is also a considerable step up from Club - not least the access to the Concorde lounge at Heathrow

      @@davidf6326 When you put it like that, you can see how I could have mistaken the old First Class as the new club suites, as that was what i was epecting.
