OP is entitled to their opinion. I have travelled regularly since 1969. Thousands and thousands of flights. I cannot even count the nnumber of airlines that I have travelled. Hundreds and hundreds of business and first class trips.
My business class trip on Emirates in 2009 was by far my worst business class trip ever. It was a 777, and when I looked back in coach, at 10 across I though it was a sardine can.
Additional detail from OP would be great.
That's interesting, I've flown in 777s on various airlines in Economy over the last couple of years since moving to Dubai.
The EK economy certain didn't feel any more cramped than any of the others, BA was by far the worst for that.
As far as service goes, they are behind Singapore in that respect for sure but certainly not the worst, BA again take the award for that.
In summary, yes I don't care much for BA, AF aren't up to much either.
In overall terms I'd probably put the airlines in 3 groups.
1) Singapore
2) EK, Etihad and Qatar
3) BA, AF and KLM although KLM were better than the other 2.
Almost all of the flights were on 777s.
