Also, neither UN nor SU offers free beer or alcohol in Y--just [1 glass of] wine. And on SU it comes in a box labeled "Merlot"...UN at least has real bottles of something. SU does offer other wine and beer for sale for cash, though it is not advertised on the LHR routes.

I'll also debate the point about UN having better legroom than BA in Y; I find UN to be quite economical on legroom, though the newer [secondhand] aircraft are fine (the 737-400/500 are a bit tight, particularly in the back).
