Today’s itinerary

Boarding

While the departure was announced with a delay of about 15 minutes, we started boarding 25 minutes late.

The boarding of the group1 began, and we were quickly invited to enter the aircraft.

Cabin and welcome

Arrived at the door of the aircraft, the welcome on board is rather cold, and we went to our seats.

It was the traditional British Airways medium-haul cabin, which is equipped (except for NEO aircraft) with shelves between the aisle seats and the window.

Service and catering

The service started about 15 minutes after take-off from Budapest airport.

A first beverage service was performed and I took take an apple juice, served with appetizer nuts.

The trays were then handed, and I chose the pasta which will be excellent. I did not eat everything but both the quality and the quantity were there. Just perfect.

The service was moderately attentive until the end of the flight.

Arrival and disembarkation

We arrived almost on time at the gate in London Heathrow, and our luggage arrived relatively quickly on the carrousel, and were all there!

Bottom line

A flight with a rather good product, but the service can really spoil everything. We are really fed up with unmotivated crews, let them stay home!
