TRIP REPORT | The Best Service Over the Atlantic! | San Francisco to London | British Airways B777

British Airways Trip Report flying from San Francisco to London onboard one of the British Airways Boeing 777-300ER on a lovely afternoon in San Francisco and a beautiful morning in the UK.

A very comfortable onboard the British Airways Boeing 777 from San Francisco to London Heathrow. The plane wasn't full so we were lucky enough to get a middle empty seat, which highly increased the comfort on this 10-hours flight.

After a beautiful review of San Francisco International Terminal, we boarded the British Airways Boeing 777 that would take us to London. We took off from runway 28R and made the initial climb over the San Francisco outskirts and the Pacific Ocean. We quickly made a right turn towards Canada.

On the first part of the flight, we found a lot of clouds as well as lots of storm clouds that we had to surround. But we were in winter, so how is it possible that we had storm clouds there? Well, you will find the explanation on the Trip Report as well! After 1 hour of flight, we enjoyed a beautiful Sunset over Montana, still over the US. From there, already in the night, we flew towards Hudson Bay, and then we entered the Nunavut region.

We flew across the Baffin Bay during the night, until we reached Greenland. From there we made a right turn that set us on direct course toward the UK. We overflew Derry and Belfast and crossed the Irish Sea towards Liverpool and Manchester. After a beautiful approach over the UK countryside, including one holding patter at a quite low altitude, we landed 10 minutes ahead of the scheduled at Heathrow airport.

Regarding the onboard service, British Airways is offering 2 warm meals on flights to the US west coast. The first one came 2h after takeoff with 2 options: chicken or pasta. The taste was pretty good; the only bad part of it was the bread, which felt like eating a stone. The second service, the breakfast, came around 1 hour before landing. It was a full warm English Breakfast with fruit. A very competitive service for a flight over the Atlantic. British Airways has clearly gone back to the pre-pandemic onboard service which really makes me really happy and clearly shows the path to follow for all the other airlines!

Now it's your turn!

I always find it amazing these planes fly 10, 000km, are cleaned quickly, restocked then they fly back another 10, 000km. They don't even need to give the plane a rest!

[lornemcclenaghan]

That service director should give instruction to others on how to do in cabin announcements! so professional, calming! it looks like you had a real good flight overall -- nice breakfast (2nd meal service) on this flight!

[MrExlibris]

I need to tell you that I love the geography and meteorology commentaries! I'm always curious above which places I'm flying (or people I'm watching) and this is giving me such a joy.

[danadidas]

I always enjoy flying BA. I'm always comforted by the calm reassuring voice announcements in the wonderful regal British accent, which us esteemed around the world. Great airline.

[andy]

I like to fly on British airways one day it looks well nice brilliant videos of different aircraft flights cheers on board HD 👍🇬🇧😊

[SK-egcw]

Thanks for sharing your time onboard British Airways. Nice pictures and views over Idaho and the Rocky Mountains. ✈️🍀 Kind regards from Germany. 😊

[sharondavis]

BA looked great to me😊 Seemed like a quiet peaceful flight ✈️ Hope all airlines continue to return to normal because they are so vital to world travel. Sunrise was gorgeous but enjoyed by so few 😢Their loss! See you next week, Lucas 👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️🇺🇸

I flew this flight number at the end of Feb 2020 just before lockdowns...it was then operated by a B747 - what a shame that was my last ever flight on one 😥 - I also flew out on the A380. A great video and review - I love flying over the US too - the emptiness is amazing - and sunrise always special, anywhere but guaranteed sunshine above the clouds really makes it. I don't know why but I had subtitles in English and Spanish on this and it was great to learn a bit of Spanish! (Oh, and the stewardess making announcements - couldn't understand a word - and I'm a native English speaker...)

British Airways cabin crew are legends. One of them polished my cowboy boots for free.

[aaronp]

BA are quite easily the best airline in the world at the moment. The service and staff are incredible. I always feel safe with their pilots too. Oh and their punctuality- simply WOW!

[cunus]

BA ftw! 🇬🇧 I knew they still had it in them. Look forward to seeing your Virgin Atlantic flight and how they compare 😊

[AA-zpib]

Literally love your videos. The way you explore the aviation world can make anyone fall in love with airplanes❤️

[thomaslang]

This is great, only 26 Min. to London!!😍

[neilhaas]

British Airways has 240 planes that's amazing wonderful. Great Airline & destinations.

[gersontill]

A very good recommendation with the sunrise. I also normally wake up and open the window blind. And guess what, I am regularly the only one.

[Jason-clhk]

I’ve taken around 300+ BA flights in the last seven years and they’ve rarely let me down. Admittedly their IT systems aren’t the best but in terms of overall service they’re pretty good.

[Hassell]

Buen vídeo, sobre todo me ha gustado ver ese espectacular amanecer y también ha sido bonito las imágenes en la aproximación a Londres. Un cordial saludo y buen fin de semana.
