I recently flew BA from Glasgow to London with my 4 week old baby.
A very pleasant stewardess came over to show me how to use the seatbelt etc. She was really bubbly, we got chatting and she made a fuss of the baby, said she had no kids of her own etc.
She said to call her if I needeed a bottle heated and I said its okay he's breastfed, and a look of horror spread across her face and she said, half joking but meaning it "oh no, you're not going to whip them out in here are you?"
I am fairly thick skinned and thought this was quite funny and replied something like"yes I probably am, but not so you would notice".
Afterwards I thought that could seriously deter someone who was less confident about breastfeeding than I am and wondered if BA staff are given any guidelines to help nursing mothers.
What do you think of this little tale?
