British Airways seat reviews

Dreadfull, the seat is reasonably comfortable providing you stay still. Any kind of movment is problomatic due to the confined space. Prior to and during takeoff, and during meal service one is virtually face to face with two people who may be strangers. Added to that is food being passed over your fellow passengers to you. When everything is stowed, retreiving anything is a nightmare, especially when the bed is flat. Also the toilet becomes a challenge, clambering over the legs of a fellow passenger who may or may not be asleep. Definitely the worst seat configuration in business class have ever encountered. I have flown round the world several times, and flown between the UK and USA/ SA frequently with various airlines. This crew were professional and courteous, but somewhat distant. The food was at best average, but running out of vegetarian meals and fruit on an aircraft which was by no means full seemed a bit odd. The 380, my first, was very impressive, with a decent seat configuration it could be a winner. These particular toilets were excellent, as was the wine. BA needs to do better, will not be using BA for longhaul business class until that configuration is changed.

So many people squeezed in, there was no room to move legs in Business Class; Worst flight I ever had.

Seat and area in front of it very roomy; multi-plug electrical outlet at seat grouping is useful; entertainment selection fairly limited; food OK; service very professional; seat divider not movable. Here's something strange: seat dividers in other seats do not move entirely out of the way--hard to stretch out when seats are empty.

I had researched seating prior to booking and choose these seats for the leg room. There was one box under each seat in front (exit seats) rather than 2 box's under the window seat. Over all i was happy with my choice but in general i thought the seats were quite hard and maybe could do with new cushioning. The storage box by the window was a great space saver . Food was average and drinks were plentiful. The cabin was quiet and the lighting was very good.

Amazing seat and flight. Seat could not have been more comfortable and Flight Attendants perfect.

I thought this seat was excellent! It gave me a great view of the ground, and I got to be in the Club World with my friend! Food was great, drinks were great, and a great choice of Movies! 10/10! ALSO RECLINING/BED SEATS!!!!!!!

A window seat without a real window, but that is really the only downside. Unlimited legroom with direct aisle access as a result. The seat is a tiny bit narrower than the average A380 economy seat, but still wide enough for me (32" jeans width).

Enough space for legs but there is no window, good seat

Paid the extra £31 to choose this seat 2 days before the flight- was easy to do, wanted to experience the upper deck as not been on A380 before. In a party of 5 who had the seats behind: 82j & k and 83 J and k. We're pleased we had. Airbus is very comfortable- the seats width snd legroom seemed on a par with our 777 flight in prem econ to Hong Kong- so seemed good value. We got the usual blanket but also toothbrush which was nice extra. Service from both stewards was great- polite, efficient and quick. Entertainment system was good and worked very well. Liked that the seat rest goes up which makes it easier to get in and out. The 5 inches of extra room on the window side is a great help as is the window side boxes which stored our hand luggage and duty free so no need to put things under chairs which meant all the legroom was for legs. Got 6 hours sleep so figured the night flight mode and quietness of this back cabin was good. The stewards do go up and down but didn't interrupt my sleep. Quieter aircraft than 777 and the cabin at the rear on upper deck is smaller in rows of seats so feels more like prem econ. The 2 back seats in 83 which carry the bad seat wRning on seat guru were fine for our teenagers. They weren't bothered by the galley at all and enjoyed the flight a lot. Would say being on upper deck was worth it.

The legroom was surprisingly good. BUT it was the same as Economy - so why pay extra for Business?
AND - London City Airport has no BA Business Lounge.
However - note the service and food were very good.
So in summary paying for Business Class on this route is a rip-off, except for the on-flight service.
