British Airways Business Class - Heathrow to Los Angeles - A380 Upper Deck - Trip Report

I was fortunate enough to travel in Club World on the upper deck of a British Airways A380 aircraft from Heathrow to Los Angeles, which was my first time travelling long-haul in their older style seat for over 14 years. Come along with me as I rediscover the good, the bad and the ugly of this seat over the course of 10 and half hours on the final A380 flight of the current season.
