Flight was delayed and there was boarding pass and flight information errors resulting in confusion and stress
It was a short flight but everything was great! I would fly with British Airways again.
Aer Lingus was the actual airline so they handled everything professionally.
The flight was okay, but legroom was tight for me and I’m only average height, although at 30” legroom is comparable with most other airlines. Not much room in the aisle either making the trek to and from the toilet difficult with passengers standing in the aisle. On the whole, it’s probably on a par with budget airlines and the ticket process extremely competitive.
This was a HORRIBLE experience. I booked a two-leg flight from Reykjavik to Istanbul. My first flight ran 3 hours late and I then missed my flight to Istanbul. British Airways put me on a Turkish Airlines flight to Istanbul. No harm done, right? Wrong. The Turkish Airlines flight turned out to be overbooked. By the time I learned of this, British Airways closed their help desk. To add insult to injury, they helped one person in front of me before casually putting up a closed sign even though they knew I was stranded (their fault!) and needed help. I ended up spending $1000+ out of pocket to clean up their mess (including the flight to Johannesburg I had to rebook since BA delayed me so much) and haven’t heard a word about reimbursement. I have never had such an awful travel experience in my life. I know delays happen, but they need to take care of their passengers when these things happen, not leave us stranded in a foreign country in the middle of the night with nowhere to go.
App totally screwed me up trying to check in. Would not let me select a reasonable seat and therefore I was stuck in a totally uncomfortable seat for 7 hours. Will not take the chance again and use other airlines in future where no issue choosing seats
3 hr delay. No water given while on the plane for 3hrs.
Economy extremely cramped. Dinner was not good. Breakfast was quite good. Crew was excellent.
It was good overall. Entertainment was ok, one of the TV screens had issue. Bit old plane but leg space was good. Overhead luggage had good space. The worst part was experience at Heathrow airport, it was total chaos.
Flight was ok, but online checkin did not work, so had to go to ticket counter. The line was long and attendant did not arrive until 2 hr before boarding. She was very efficient, but the uncertainties was troubling.
