New British Airways Club World suite has been launched! Looks nice! It'll debut on the A350 1000 and the configuration for that aircraft will be 56 Club World seats, 56 World Traveller plus seats and 219 World Traveller economy seats.

Services to Toronto and Dubai from 1st and 8th October respectively. Flights to Madrid over the Summer as well but dates aren't yet confirmed.
 
Reported on the BBC that a BA flight from London City to Duseldorf has landed at the wrong airport as in Edinburgh apparently the paperwork wrong? Surely there a bit more to it than that e.g. route filing, why am I heading north instead of east where's the north sea etc.

Lucky they weren't on a long haul flight or even the space shuttle if it still existed.

It appears the paperwork (i.e. filed flight plan) was right for an LCY-EDI flight, the crew (this was a WDL Aviation aircraft wet leased to BACF) simply carried out the flight plan they were given.

You would have thought someone might have twigged prior to take off with the usual announcement on board prior to departure "good morning ladies and gentlemen welcome to your Briitish Airways flight to Edinburgh " not to mention the boarding staff checking the boarding cards which presumably had Duseldorf on them which you also show to the cabin crew on boarding, it's a grade one ***Please Read Forum Terms of Service*** up by the look of it.

BA don't check boarding passes on entering the aircraft for short haul - similar to quite a few other airlines. I know a few do though (BE and LS from memory). I would have expected WDL when operating for BACF to follow the same procedure.

You are quite right tho, quite a ***Please Read Forum Terms of Service*** up!
 
First flight for G-XWBA.

Could this possibly delay the reintroduction of flights to Sharm el Sheikh ?
 

BA pilots in Balpa have overwhelmingly voted to take strike action in furtherance of a pay claim. They are threatening to walk out during this summer.
 
Channel 5 have been airing a documentary on British Airways, access all areas or something like that, I’ve watched a couple of episodes showing the refurb of a 777 and maintenance and I have to say it’s not too bad for Channel 5 documentary.
