Bar a Qatar J TP 'run', something I wanted to try anyhow, I have never done one!

I miss the BA Travel Shops.

I remember the one in Edinburgh very well and used it quite a number of times. When the first 'new' WTP seat was launched there was one in the shop and after sitting it it I bought an upgrade for the return leg from the States.

The staff in them were wonderful. Extremely genuine and helpful, certainly here in Edinburgh, and a few of them were originally cabin crew. Any issues/questions you could just call them or pop in which many people did and they were always happy to help/advise etc. Call me old fashioned but I still prefer buying from shops in human contact, whether that's John Lewis, Marks and Sparks etc and don't generally buy stuff online other than holidays and hotels.

I used to like taking a few brochures home too and the luxury holidays one was a good read but WAY out of my price range!
