BA, Air NZ or United, Business class to LA?
Hi everyone - first time poster here. I have done a lot of short haul business, mainly BA from LHR to european capitals. In May i'm flying to LA, and have budget for business class, but only from a few providers assuming I want to fly direct.
The shortlist appears to be Air NZ, United, and BA. BA is slightly over budget. Any thoughts on which I should choose? NZ appears to be a 777-300, so the herringone formation? United's site shows a 777-200 with the front/rear facing lie flats BA looks to be the A380-800 I won't get the chance to do this very often, so I want to make the most of it! Many thanks |
I thought UA's 772s (at least the PMUA ones) were 2-4-2 in J, which I'd probably avoid.
I cannot comment on NZ. I'd probably go with the BA A380. |
I think you are right about UAs 2-4-2, and it seems that it's only seats in the '4' section that are available.
How reliable is seatguru in giving the actual plane configuration for a specific flight? |

What is AA charging for LHR-LAX, either on their own nonstop, or on their codeshares operated by BA? |

Of the three choices, I would recommend Air New Zealand unless you really want to be on the A380. If you choose BA, budget in the extra for seat selection unless you don't mind risking getting a middle seat in business.
Would definitely avoid United. |
