Fair enough !

In fact IB did not do themselves any favours by upping me on the BA leg... just reminded me of the vast difference between the 2 carriers !

Again fair enough, you have obviously taken many many more IB flights than me, and so I take your word for it. But my experience this week sadly only concurs with the negative opinions expressed by others on FT before.
I'll ceratinly never be flying IB on such a (medium-haul) route ever again, in Y or J.
