CX or BA from SIN to SVQ in J Class
I have to go from SIN to SVQ for a wedding in May. Looking to book in J.
I have never flow BA J class but have been on CX's at least 4x a year. From the looks of it, I think I prefer CX's cabin config. However, if I flew CX, I would have to make 2 stops (SIN-HKG-LHR-SVQ). If I flew BA, I only have to stop in LHR (SIN-LHR-SVQ). The LHR-SVQ will be on BA. Do you prefer BA or CX's J Class?

I prefer CX's product and service, but not enough to outweigh an extra plane change and numerous extra hours. Your CX status will allow you to pick seats on the BA planes, so pick good ones.

I am not seeing any LHR-SVQ service on BA; only LGW-SVQ. Will there be LHR-SVQ service in May?
If you want to avoid the LHR-LGW ground transfer, how about SIN-DOH-MAD-SVQ on QR/IB?

Hi,
On BA.com it states the flight to Seville will be from LGW not LHR in May.
(the MCT for LHR-LGW is 3 hours including a coach journey between the airports)
Regards
