New BA Ad..."friendly lemon"

...had a quick scan on the board and cannot see anything about the new BA ad campaign.

I have to say I do like the new ad, short and to the point and pointing out the differences between BA and the LCC

Opps....I can only apologise profusely and seek the forgiveness of the senior mod for such a stupid schoolboy error

I like the ads. It has the English understatement that we mainland Europeans so much like. It really says "our product is so good we can now focus on the small details." Having flown a non-reclining low cost carrier recently that is a really powerful message.

I can think of at least one FTer who will be content with the content of the ad, for that reason alone.
Ah - if you had me in mind then you are a wise man indeed.

What's wrong with it - I'd rather a Happy Lemon rather than a Bitter Lemon.

I feel a G&T coming on!1

As the OP (and therefore the 'citron acerbe' in question - hint hint ) I must say it's grown on me, and I'm certainly glad for the ethos that underlies it. And I speak as one who ought to be at cruising altitude right now enjoying a gratis whisky and ginger, but is grounded by that troublesome Sandy

The TV adverts really are rubbish IMO. Totally pointless, they don't sell the product well, and are just rather 'bleugh'. The 'To Fly to Serve' has no meaning in the context of the adverts.

This thread is over my head. By the time I consider drinking G+T i'm generally so drunk that any accompaniment represents a choking hazard.
