British Airways - Travel classes. Premium economy/Business class.

User018475022 · 19/07/2021 18:41

I am (with a bit of luck, had three attempts canceled) traveling with British Airways to New York in the new year.
I am traveling Premium economy out and Business class back.
Just wondering, from people who have flown these classes what to expect?
I'm used to basic economy class!

The worst thing about business class is that you won’t want to fly long haul economy again...

Spot on.

One you get used to a bit of space & comfort, long-haul economy feels like a form of punishment.

@User018475022 out of curiosity how extra are you paying for PE and business class?
I'd love to do a long haul flight where my seat turned into a bed. I've been upgraded a couple of times on short haul so have had nice food / wine, but not the proper sleeping experience, sigh!

The best things about business class, whatever the airline almost always, are the different airport experience (dedicated check-in, fast tracks, they quickly chauffeur you onto the next plane if your connection becomes too tight, lounges!!) and the fact that you can lie down during the flight.

I agree with this statement though:
The worst thing about business class is that you won’t want to fly long haul economy again…

So true!

premium economy is not very different to economy.
