Is 64K better than First Class?

I flew BA177 last week (LHR-JFK) and was fortunate to have reserved 64K. This seat was all that everyone here has raved about. Extraordinarily private with amazing storage space. Compared to the mass of humanity that BA stuffs into its F cabin, the upper deck and especially 64K is an oasis by comparison... far more private and with much more accessible storage space than in F. Even better today as the only unoccupied seat in the UD was 64J. Fantastic service from our two UD flight attendants. And the DO&CO catering was very impressive. All in all, a terrific experience and a bargain compared to what BA wants for an F ticket. Some pics from my first 64K...



Followed by a glass of Burgundy, unfortunately not much better than room temp.



Showtime, BA Club World style...



For my starter, I went with the Spice-roasted cauliflower with beluga lentils, lime cream and fresh mint. Delicious.





My main, the Braised breasts of corn-fed chicken, braised pearl barley risotto, wild garlic. This was very good.





For dessert, the Warm stickey toffee pudding...



... was fabulous.



The cheese plate was really good.
