yes, this is about the fifth or sixth flight in BA F. All of them were BA 84/85 (YVR LHR)
I would say that the food may have been slightly better than in the past but not leaps and bounds. the presentation was certainly an improvement.
the crew were lackluster. they weren't bad. they weren't great. they did their job. we've had some great crew and some not so great. so this time was average.
the bedding was also slightly better, the pajamas and amenity kit slightly better as well.
now the thing that was really bad about this flight was the passengers. there was a couple with two teenage kids that felt that the cabin was their private lounge. the F cabin in the 747 is not spacious and it is very annoying to have people milling about the space between rows 2 and 3, having loud conversations with other family members, and their low hanging trousers with their underwear hanging out effectively right in your face. extremely inconsiderate to everyone else. there were two other teens in the cabin and their behaviour was impeccable.
