Cleanliness - 'brown stains' in toilet Bah-LHR
Flew BAH-LHR last night in J. Was first person to use one of the toilets before take off. Disgusted to see a lot of brown smears across wall and ceiling on supposedly clean jet.
Got some photos of it, not sure how to upload them from a phone though? I do have to wonder how difficult is it to clean brown smears off a toilet wall? Plane more widely was tatty and dirty and I had a broken footrest necessitating a seat move.
Have flown QR, EK and BA in J in last three weeks. Sadly BA is a very distant third on meals, cabin, crew and experience. :-(

The OP mentions brown stains on the ceiling though... Could they have thrown the tea and coffee in the toilet with enough force to generate *that* much splash back

I'll avoid the photos then :-)
If it was tea / coffee, it was a brown on the ceiling, the likes of which I'd not seen before...
I'd complain but I know I'll get a form letter without anything done about it. Didnt raise it at the time as it was very late at night / early morning and I just wanted to get to sleep. Didnt think saying anything would make a difference and didnt know cleaners could be called back - one to remember for next time.

They must have been taking salts (somersaults )

If the OP was the first person to use the loo after the turn-around, then it doesn't matter how/why it was caused, it should have been cleaned. It is a simple lack of cleaning (but hardly surprising for BA).
