British Airways A350 Economy in 2024: All you Need to Know in 5 minutes

Really decent experience with British Airways onboard one of their newer Airbus A350-900 aircraft on a recent flight from phoenix, Arizona through to their base at London Heathrow.

In this flight, we’re at the back of the bus checking out where their long-haul economy offering has got to in 2024. Overall, I thought it was really good. The addition of the two full meal service offerings was a real plus on what was a 9 hour transatlantic flight - so often now you see airlines doing a one and a half type service model with only a very light snack to follow the main service. Here, there was a full dinner and breakfast service which I thought was fab.

The newer seats, whilst very slim were nicely padded, especially on the base facilitating a lot of much needed rest! The flight was incredibly full but despite this, the crew did a good job of laying on a prompt and efficient service.

Lots more to come on the channel over the coming weeks from the likes of JetBlue, Qatar Airways and BA. Until then, if you are thinking of flying with BA and want something a little more premium, I’d recommend checking out my recent review of their Premium Economy cabin just here:
