Hi,

On flights from the UK to US (East/West Coast) (usuallly with VS but occasionally with BA - they have sky maps that point out the altitude of the aircraft). We have usually started the cruise at 33,000ft before climbing during the flight to 35,37,39 and once 41,000 feet for the last part of the cruise before decending to land.

Regards
TBS
