Immigration pre-cleareance and the ease of using LCY is great. TPs are an extra bonus but there is a special "private jet" feel on having so few passengers on board. Boarding at LCY or JFK is a total breeze.

If I cannot get a LCY CW flight, I would switch to an AA 777-300 flight over BA from LHR. The 1-2-1 seats are so much better than BA, the toilet at 2R and 2L is massive and you can pre-order your meal. I already have my flight booked on AA over Christmas.

Upper Deck or not, I cannot understand how anyone can prefer BA's ying-yang seat over AA's 777-300 new Business class seating with single window seats.
