I don't think it's as good. It's comparable, for sure, but I think it suffers for the comparison.

The Envoy seat doesn't go flat, unlike the NCW seat (which goes both flat and horizontal). You get more privacy on BA with the layout of the cabin.

Personally, I think the catering on BA is better (uhh, historically, not including the Current Woes) as well: with a choice of appetiser, for example, and named wines on the menu. I also prefer the BA snack service to the really naff pizza in Envoy.

On the other hand, the A330 AVOD is better than BA's in-flight entertainment system.
