Trip Report - British Airways First Class - New York to Heathrow

Описание: Delays to my inbound connecting flight from LAX the previous night as a result of bad weather at JFK meant that I missed my original flight with BA (which was the final flight of the day) and ended up having an unplanned overnight stay at JFK as a result.

They say that every cloud has a silver lining, and my rebooked flight the following day gave me the opportunity to spend several hours in the Concorde Room, as well as exploring the Alaska lounge at JFK for the first time. I also ended up with a stellar crew looking after the First Class cabin on the BA112, resulting in the best flight I've ever had in over 40 years of flying.

Come with and see why I thin that BA can still deliver a fantastic First Class experience
