This made me laugh so hard I snorted. Thanks for that.

"Yes I do, watch... *deep breath*"
"I'm going to get some water, I need to hear you from over there."

The guy moved his call shortly after.

This is quite excellent.

BA2063 tonight:
One passenger with an oversized bag pack pushing everyone out of his way so he could get to the front of the queue. Had it in my face.

Lots of people talking about how bad the 777s are and how they only travel upper deck normally (I didn't know people had these chats offline).

One guy actually bringing his old First pj (including hole in the top part) and wearing it on board.

Does this really count as DYKWIA? Surely DYKWIA would be 'I only travel in F normally'? I'm quite happy to admit there is zero chance of me flying Club World on a BA 777 any time soon for as long as I can avoid it.
crazyarmadillo and chynaS like this.

Total First pj count is 3 now. Quite amazing for the tiny 5 row forward club cabin.

So do I. If I have a spare PJ that I haven’t thrown out, I take it with me to use it in CW and potentially dispose of it after the flight.

EVA PJs are even better. And I'll use them on any airline!

Emphasising that one usually travels First, but due to unfortunate circumstances (such as there is no F) one is forced to rub shoulders with the great unwashed. Very DYKWIA in my book...

Yes, exactly, you should just wear the Club World pajamas BA hand out to sleep instead of trying to show off! Oh, wait...
