Just messing around with a booking and for once I looked at all the details and saw this gem

For all of us here it will be silly to say that but there are lots of people who are suitably reassured when theyre a long way away that when they see the red, white and blue turn up to take them home, it gives them a sort of reassuring feeling - Ive had many people describe that to me before!!

yes but you wouldnt be an ordinary flyer just like most on here, most ordinary pax will have no idea about the issues BA face with A380s for example

Its been a long time since BA had any entitlement to leverage this emotive guff. Probably at least 15 years to me.
Im currently at SFO and saw a BA A380 earlier. More and more when seeing a BA tail overseas, I think thank god Im not on that!
The seat to sink into will be newer, more easily accessible, better maintained and with better food and drink, on almost any other airline in J.

PS If you have ever been booked onto Saudia by corporate travel you will know what I mean!
