"uneventful set of flights"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | Edinburgh to Berlin via London City with BA Citiflyer. It was overall an uneventful set of flights. The in-flight service was fine with passengers receiving a drink and their choice of popcorn, crisps or biscuits. The frequency of flights between Edinburgh and London are great but the long layover at London City is unfortunate as there are no lounges to access.

"superior service to BA"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | Edinburgh to London City and first time flying BA City Flyer and enjoyed the service. Check in quick and polite, security busy but quick too, I had an hour in the Galleries lounge which was okay for a coffee. Boarding via A8 and steps on to a nice looking clean E170 - Seat 1A very nice crew pretty chatty and funny actually. Departed on time one airborne a coffee and snack offered which apparantly BA proper can no longer afford on the EDI-LHR service. It's my first time on BA CityFlyer my first time on this type of aircraft and my first use of London City. Landed a few minutes early, bags off quickly a great service. I find BA's franchises or subsidiary operated services such as Comair in South Africa or BA Cityflyer normally operate a superior service to BA.

"still give drinks and a snack"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | Amsterdam to London City. I was not originally on this flight, I was due to go to Southampton with KLM but the flight along with many others was cancelled because of the weather. The wait at the KLM transfer desk was running at over an hour so I gave up and went to BA. Very good price for a flight to LCY three hours later. Unlike their big brother (British Airways), BA CityFlyer still give drinks including alcohol and a snack on this short trip. Left an hour late due to weather. Crew fine.

"a seamless and professional experience"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | From the booking process to arrival into Dublin this was a seamless and professional experience. Check-in was friendly and efficient and boarding was managed in a professional and logical manner. The flight had a short delay but they was explained and communication was superb. A drink and snack was on offer and my bag was delivered promptly from in Dublin. I found the cabin crew to be friendly and hardworking and very well turned out. I was comfortable and enjoyed the service and would use them again for sure!

"a disappointing experience"

(Switzerland)

Verified Review | Zurich to London City Airport. No real business class experience. The gate for this short haul flight was very unusually at Terminal E, some additional 15 minutes away from the main terminal. Luckily I had only little hand baggage and had checked in on-line before, otherwise I would have missed the flight. Boarding was rather chaotic, no special lane for business class. The seats were okay, but narrow and cramped. As it was an early morning flight we got hot breakfast, with was disappointing in quantity and quality: the fruit salad looked tired, no muesli nor yoghurt. A disappointing experience, but rather typical for flights to City Airport.

"cabin was clean and tidy"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | London City to Berlin Tegel. This is the first time flying with BA CityFlyer for about 10 years as they gave up the route to Riga. This was only short hop to Berlin but the service both on the ground and in the cabin was first class. The food was tasty, cabin was clean and tidy. The announcements were clear and concise. On arrival at Tegel, we were parked away from the terminal and buses to take us to the terminal were waiting as we landed and once in the terminal the bags were with us in minutes.

"great experience with BA CityFlyer"

(United Kingdom)

Great experience with BA CityFlyer from Mykonos to London City. Seat configuration 2 x 2, comfy seats, almost similar to a premium product. No inflight entertainment but with a relatively short flight at just under 4 hours that's okay. Would be nice to have a hot meal in economy in the evening, dinner was a chicken and potato salad. LCY a breeze to get through immigration, took less than 2 minutes and bag collection 20 and was on my way. Would highly recommend and hope BA operate more flights from here in the future.

"we left and arrived on time"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | My wife and I flew Glasgow to London City on an Embraer 170. The flight was full and we left and arrived on time. These regional jets are ideaL for this type of journey, 2x2 seating with good leg room. London City is a breeze, out of airport onto the DLR, central London in 15 minutes.

"left and arrived on time"

(United Kingdom)

My wife and I flew from Dublin to London City Airport in an Embraer 170. The flight was full and left and arrived on time. Drink and a packet of crisps given out. We handed over our cabin bag because of the full load and ended up waiting over 20 minutes at City Airport for it. Still got Victoria Station in half an hour.

"impressed with the meal service"

(Netherlands)

Verified Review | Madrid to Amsterdam via London City Airport. Very good flights with BA Cityflyer. Legroom and comfort on the Embraer were good, and I was impressed with the meal service from Madrid to London. A choice of meal tray with cold salad and desert was offered, and on every flight a second drink was offered. Crew was young but very professional and polite. Transfer at LCY was not great, we had to leave the airport and re-enter in just 45 minutes.
