Although the SFO terminal is a very nice space (and I especially like the way the gate areas are sunken with sufficient space for passenger waiting) it is too bad you didn't get to experience boarding right from the lounge.

It has been almost 10 yrs since my last F on BA.
SQ F and LH F became a yearly option with fantastic mile sales from US until 2011
Then EY and EK stepped up with AA and AS miles

I am curious - has BA stopped giving pajamas in F class?

Getting back from NYC tonight, thinking toward my next trip is how I get through the monotony of being home.

My next hurdle: only 7 more weeks until I take off to Hong Kong and Australia for 10-11 days!

Glad you enjoyed a final day in SF - I love the Exploratorium as well as their restaurant.
I hope you can get lobster again, and often - it is soft and delicious, and doesn't need to be tough.
Hope your bag was delivered to you ok - at least you weren't waiting by baggage claim for the bag!
Welcome home and thanks for the great TR. I love the Ferry Building but haven't eaten at Cowgirl Creamery - your TR was a good endorsement for it. Plus your walking feels inspiring. I definitely learned some good tips for my own city from your TR.

Ps did you get pajamas in F?? My mother-in-law flew BA F (LHR-ord) in 2010 with AA miles and gave me her (in-worn) F pajamas. But you mentioned about the tracksuit bottoms.

Thanks Flyingboy200

I agree that was a shame, I am still not clear on what BA are doing with the lounge and the A380, I know an extension was talked about at one stage. To be honest apart from the First lounge, toilets and showers I didn't venture any further so anything could have been going on.

It's these small pleasures that get us through. I had not been home for more than 2 hours last week and I was already looking at other trips. I already have another 3 holidays planned in 2016 but there is always room for more, especially if a deal pops up!

Yes sorry, I forgot the PJs. They were given out with the amenity kit before take off. I bought tracksuit bottoms as I didn't know if they would fit properly. I needn't have worried as a medium was perfect.

Awesome report, Dave. Even more excited about my SFO trip in August. Have taken your advice and diarised the booking date for Alcatraz!
