Hi,

The 777 is an excellent aircraft with an excellent safety record ( if you can book a seat choose one as far forward as you can to reduce the engine noise in the cabin as being beside the engines ( row 10-11 on the 3 class 777 will be slightly noisier)

The 777 travels slightly slower than the 747 so that might explain the longer journey time although MCO has always been operated by a 777. BA might have increased the " padding " in the schedule to allow for any delays ( and i think might take slightly longer in winter due to stronger head winds)

Enjoy CW on the 777.

Regards

TBS
