Thanks again David for the tips! I really think you are right. A change is as good as the rest and even if we don't like it we at least tried it.


AKS120 BA CW is sounding more and more appealing! If I am perfectly honest one of the reasons I have been a little put off BA is because lots of people tell me the crew are a bit snobby. However, I personally can find the Virgin crew a tad pretentious and nearly always get the impression they feel myself and my husband are not worthy to be flying UC. Reasons for this may include:-
We are a young couple (20's)
We don't dress up to fly (usually smart jeans and smart collared t-shirt or jumper)
We have visible tattoo's
Even if they DO look down on us and honestly I really do not care what anyone thinks of me then thats their issues. But I do start to take offence when others opinions start to become obvious to me when I am paying for a service. I once was at the bar in UC (in my sleepsuit I may add) and was asked by a member of cabin crew if I was flying UC that day!!!! I'm not painting a pretty picture of myself but really I'm not a terrible troll lol.
The point I am trying to make is I don't think BA could be any more snobby than some of the Virgin crew I have encountered over the years.
