BA 289 to Phoenix
Hi,I know BA are refitting interiors but are BA likely to be refitting/upgrading these old 747-400 planes flying to Phoenix next year? due to travel in May. Thanks |
It’s possible but too early to safe for sure, we will have more idea the day before. |

Thanks Welcome to flyertalk and the BA forum PaulS02!, Some of the BA 747 will be refurbished although it is too early to say I think if all of them will be done by May ( I do not think all of them will be) Also AA will be running a 777-200 from LHR to PHX next year ( seasonal) Regards TBS |

Thanks In the meantime let me welcome you to flyertalk and the BA Board PaulS02. I liked the timing of your post too re the Jumbo as it's time stamped at 7.47! :) |

Thanks for prompt replies ���� |
Can I ask how full these flights usually are from any experienced flyers on the BA289/288 route to PHX Flying out on Friday 3rd May retuning on Wed 15th if that makes a difference? |

Thanks was asking as my wife has spine and arthritis issues so travelling extremely uncomfortable for her,so was hoping there maybe some empty rows where she may stretch out. What seats in WT would you recommend and what are the chances of an upgrade? Should I look to ask for the disability assistance as never used the facility before? Does anyy have any experience of using it? |
I've flown 288 to LHR and 289 to PHX many times. It's my most common flight, actually.
I've not seen any recent upgrades in any seating class (never flown F yet) aside from IFE displays refresh i noticed on my last 289 Y flight in mid January. I'm flying D in 289 this Sunday, so i'll let you know what i see. |

For a decent level of comfort, you may be able to buy into Business Class at £5-600 per person, more on the return as it's USD priced and tends to be around $1,000.00 |

Unfortunately I was upgraded to seat 1a in F at the gate, so I cannot report on the D seats. 😃
