British Airways Club World LHR-AUH - VLOG Style Trip Report

This is not a conventional trip report - it's part of my VLOG series.

Still, I'm pleased with it and I think it gives a flavour for what BA Club World is like.


Sorry for lack of external shots - I couldn't get a window seat.

I quite enjoyed that! "I'm more of an Easyjet man now"- Well after BA introduced BoB services, I think more and more people will be. "Airplane food is usually crap"- Haha I can concur with that EDI-traveller!

Enjoy AUH!

Best, LL

Thanks for posting & reminding me why I will never fly BA’s Club World. Good god, can’t BA do any better than that?! That table set up & the presentation of the food looked really dreadful. Pleased for you that it tasted better than it looked!

(btw - the “music” soundtrack was )

The main course was a sight on the plate but tasted fine.

My musical tastes range from rock which I grew up with, 80s New Romantics which I went to university with, to dance and UK Hardcore from my fitness classes - so I can understand the

Thanks for sharing - I enjoyed it!

Re the food presentation, I still can't understand how BA gets away with serving a bag of nuts with a pre-dinner drink and then pops a chocolate, cheese and the dessert on the same tray as the starter? Clearly, the airline is too cheap and lazy to serve warmed nuts (à la UA and AA) and then come round with desserts and cheese later after the main meal.

Nicely done. Different as more down to earth.

Video only appeared for me today so couldn't see what the previous comments were going on about.
