Loading commenced as some pax were 'wowing' their way through the Club World cabin (By the way I travel in Y more than anything, so when I get the chance to fly in CW nobody appreciates it more than me !).

BA B772 LHR > MAD in J by The OBC Man, on FlickrMy home airport is LHR and home airline is British Airways for which I'm thankful for as I really am the biggest BA fan ! Arriving at and going through T5 is always a joy for me. I love the BA aircraft, seats, crew, service, food & drink ! And yes I know seated at a window you have climb over someones feet in CW but I love the seat and yes I have flown recent with AY/CX in J.
I know you can't please everyone but I think BA do a lot of things right !
