On a personal level I agree; far better. Sprite is a mixture of lemon and lime which equates to a fairly unspecific taste in my opinion and is no substitute for fizzy lemonade. The last I heard was that the replacement was only temporary but until further notice. The latter presumably meaning that BA will revert back to Coke products at some point n the future, most likely when all the distribution problems are ironed out and the bulk stocks of replacement product are suitably dwindled down.
