Airline reviews

Our first flight was cancelled and we were rebooked on a later flight. Our second flight was delayed by 3 hours but nobody told us anything. We were just expected to wait at the gate. No notice or information. We ended up missing our next flight from London but because we booked separately British Airways won’t do anything about it even though we booked our flights with more than a 7 hour gap. We had to then rebook new flights two days later and stay longer in London.

Flight on time. Food was poor - low quality and hard to eat due to poor layout

Experience was probably the best I’ve had on BA for a long time. Only thing is A380 is old now and it needs upgrading. The en re attainment screens are very small and the touchscreen barely works.

No entertainment system, but it is a short flight so that is not a big deal.

The crew were friendly and helpful, really appreciated. The food was pretty nice. a smidge more leg room would always be welcome but when you buy cheap you get what you get :)

Was downgraded from Premium Economy to Economy and no indication of any compensation.

Flight was delayed by 7 hours and it caused all kind of issues

The online flight scheduler only assigned 3 hours to get from Gatwick to heathrow. This is not enough time for a normal transit between the two airports. I had to run and hire a taxi because the bus and train would take too long. After paying a 150 Taxi I arrived at the gate just before it closed.

There was no entertainment offered or expected, so please disregard my readings of that component. The flight was fantastic. Efficient boarding, takeoff, and even early arrival!

Ticketing was a bit misleading. Was not immediately apparent that the tickets included no check-in luggage allowance.
