Our service standards state;
Day flights 22-23 degrees C
Night flights 21-22 degrees C
In general, females tend to be colder and males tend to be warmer. Unless you want segragated by sex cabins, there is no way to please everyone.
Sorry
Kind regards

Thanks for this.
Yes, broadly, BA have been much closer to these standards over the last couple of years in
my experience. I carry a Temp and Humidity gauge and use for all long-haul flights.
As I tend to be too warm I actively look for the 'colder' seats on night-time sectors ... and lay on top of blankets rather than under. On 'hot' flights I do layer down some
.
Surprisingly, my trusty gauge can highlight up to a 3.5 degree difference between my CW window seat and MrsFish's aisle seat (divider down), 747 UD that was.
On humidity, no data on the 788/9, but A380 merely drys down to <10% humidity more slowly than the 747s. If someone could tell me for a (measured onboard) fact humidity stays above 15% on the BA Dreamliners then I'd give 'em a go even if needing a wonky routing
.
One of the bonuses with my ET exit rows most of the time is the cooler environment ... my gauge saw 28 degrees on a A319 last year at Row 6, :eek
