WTP London - Orlando. WTP is a big improvement over standard economy but the bigger seat is all you
get. The rest of the service is the same as World Traveller. You even have to use the WT toilets.
The seat itself is excellent and in my opinion worth paying the extra but BA could add something to
make the WTP experience a little special given the price. I would fly BA WTP again but I might try
Virgin Premium Economy next time.

BA has typical 31" pitch in World Traveller so it's a bit cramped. I like aisle on long hauls
for easy access. I've flown SFO-LHR many times on BA. Unless you can score a bulkhead all
seats are basically the same.

The seat itself was not bad, except for being dirty, however, the IFE was broken for
approximately 30-40 people in economy. Some of BA's 777 are very old and are showing it with
broken equipment.

I am over six feet tall so booked a word traveller plus cabin seat. Overall very good and one of the
few seats where I have been able to stretch out and even cross my legs.

I used to find that British Airways WT seats had very little leg room, but this seems to have
improved. The seat was comfortable for a 6'00" guy on a 10.5 hour flight from LHR to SFO. I
slept a bit on a day flight and had a good view of the screen (which had a lot of movie and TV choices)

Travelled WT+ and WT on BA on Toronto flights. The seats in WT+ are comfortable and recline
well. It is difficult to judge legroom as we were in a cot position on both flights. In terms
of comfort WT+ has the edge over WT as we found the seats harder in WT and more difficult to
get comfortable which don't help on an 8 hour overnight flight.

World Traveller Plus cabin. Isle seat next to window seat has restricted foot space due to
entertainment electronics under seat in front, so swapped for window. Not a bad seat, and fine for
daytime long haul flights. But sleeping less good. Width feels less than Virgin and Qantas premium
economy seats - BA fits the same number across a 777 as the others have in a 747. No AVOD and screen
is incredibly small by today's standards. Power socket is low voltage type. Looking old.

Euro Traveller, OSL-LHR. After flying a lot of low-cost airlines, this was a good experience. I had
seat 6F with the middle seat empty. Would have felt a bit cramped with a full flight. However, the
seat width and legroom was good. Checked in online. Fast and easy.

LHR-NBO The flight was not full, and there were plenty of free seats, so I had a row of three to
myself. If, however, I had been on a full flight I would have found it very cramped.

9 hour flight from LGW to Orlando on outbound and 7 hours on the way back.
Flight was comfortable although as always a little extra legroom in economy
would go a long way to enhancing the economy flying experience. Flight out was
longer but felt more comfortable on way back, sat in row 22A on outbound and 21D
on return. IFE was sufficient and kept me occupied!

Seat was very tight on width and i am 6ft with a 34inch waist. Space was okay when forward seat was
not reclined but when it was it felt very close and you could not read or use you table. In flight
entertainment wasn't fully working either and they made no announcement about this. Seat head rest
were poor.
