BA's old planes are very poor value for money in Club. Both LHR-BKK and LHR-CPT are using very old planes with less than luxurious products at the front yet people do want to fly direct.

Does anyone know what is going to happen to the 777 that currently flies to BKK? Surely it's got many years left of service so perhaps it will be fitted with a new interior and up to date IFE.
If I were a betting man I’d say that the 777 will transfer to Gatwick and get the LGW new interiors. The 777 fleet there was due to grow to 17 frames if memory doesn’t fail me.
