WORTH IT? British Airways 777-200 PREMIUM ECONOMY London to New York

What's it like to fly British Airways on one of their most profitable long haul routes? Is it really worth paying an extra $400-$1400? Join me as I review their Boeing 777-200 in the front row of Premium Economy from London to New York.

18:12 What an elegant way of discarding the paper bag, dear.

No nonsense reveiw, I liked the words on screen rather than listening too someone waffle, great job 👏

I just finished one of your Delta flight reviews and was very excited to be notified of a new video! Can't wait to watch!

[s.elizabethdraper]

Thanks for uploading!! I fly with my nearly four year old London to LAX end of September. Flying PE so good to see the lay out ect. Brilliant video 👍

I have to say, it still feels strange and depressing not seeing the British Airways 747s at Heathrow. They were always a familiar sight, and a real pleasure to ride on 😢

At 18:10 did you just chuck the food wrapper on the floor? Why would you do that?

British Airways, always a safe and reliable airline, however imperfect it is. Great to see the planes of the 1990s like the 777-200 still flying well into the 2020s!

I flew through LHR from Boston last month on a 777-300 with the older interior. We flew business class over (yin/yang seats, comfortable but weird layout) and premium economy back. The PE seats are the same as what you had. After flying to Europe on other carriers in economy, I found PE to be an upgrade worth it for the short money. I could probably to PE on the red-eye over to LHR as well, but I had enough AA points to do business over and premium economy back. We sat in the back row of the PE cabin. The back row seats don't recline as far as the other seats.... we lost about 2 inches of recline. Not an issue on a day flight but the extra recline would be appreciated on a redeye. Surprisingly, no one complained on SeatGuru to make the seats yellow or at least add a note. Thanks for the video.... I'm a new subscriber to your channel.

Useful video for me as I'm booked for AA 777 prem econ from Heathrow this Christmas to JFK and returning on BA 777 prem econ. Surprisingly few videos on these carriers prem econ 777. I thought they'd be dozens and dozens.

I have the a BA 777-200 premium economy seat from London to Mumbai booked for January. This video gave a good glimpse of what it’ll be. Thanks!

I flew BA World Traveler Plus early May 2022 from Heathrow to JFK on the 777. Unfortunately we didn't get an amenity kit and the screens in our section didn't work for the entire flight (BA compensated with bonus avios points), but the seats themselves were worth it.
We flew back from Washington DC on the 787 dreamliner which looked like it had a better entertainment system and it worked this time! Still no amenity kit though.
I would definitely fly again.

[Sanznachito]

Not half bad… hats off to BA, perfectly acceptable for 7 hours - thanks for sharing as always! 👍

[amfwelsh]

Thanks for uploading your review. never flown BA to the states. only United and have this flight booked in September 2022.

Recently flew premium economy with BA Islamabad to Gatwick and I must say I was pretty impressed with the cabin

[ijjalsparadise]

Wow Premium economy is really good one, quite spacious as far as legroom is concerned.. Great BA👍

Your vlogs give people true sense on using Paddington Express from London/city to LHR and all that follows.
Important to highlight if people use underground, many stations have stairs, non reliable escalators v lifts. (Luggage). Underground is cheaper, but Paddington Express is worth extra dollars. Book on-line 👍👊

Thanks for the upload, I like your idea of scoring . I’ve used B.A. Premium Economy in the past and always found it acceptable. However lots of negative comments on YT recently but this positive review here made me think that maybe B.A. make an extra effort on the most competitive route in the World, LHR/JFK. I’m in two minds whether to stick with Business next trip or go back to P.E. which of course is a substantial saving.

What a big paper bag for a little sandwich and kitkat. Nice video. Thank you.

[bmused]

Flown BA in Business a few times. Always a great service, delivery with a smile. Just booked flights to and from Atlanta in Premium Economy. We shall see how it compares. (Flown them in economy plenty of times too).

[stephenconnolly]

Great video As always 👍. I find the same issue with ba. Very friendly crew but always leave the trays for top long and the ife is well below most other rival flying that route.
