Advantages: Generally good value economy class

Disadvantages: Leg room not great, cleaning not up to scratch

We fly with British Airways annually to Florida and find their economy class 'World Traveller' to be a good service. The in flight service is generally speedy and the meals tend to be reasonable enough compared to other flight companies. The choice of drinks available in the complimentary bar service is wide ranging and there seems to be something to suit most tastes.

The seat pitch and leg room I feel to be a little restricted, but I do not feel it is worth the extra expense to upgrade classes merely to obtain more leg room. However, the provision of blankets, cushions, eyeshades and flight socks does help improve your comfort level on long trans-atlantic flights. I would agree with previous reviews which draw attention to the fact that the cabins do not seem to be cleaned very thoroughly and have found my seat to be dirty on more than one occasion

On board entertainment on trans-atlantic flights has improved recently with the introduction of the Audio Visual On Demand system, which allows you to select your choice of movie, TV programme or music from a pretty wide selection which you can watch/listen to in your own time and control at your leisure.

I find the online check-in facility very useful and I always use it to ensure that where I sit within the cabin is suitable to my family's needs.

Overall I would recommend British Airway's World Traveller service to anyone who wants more than what the budget airlines have to offer but who do not want to pay a premium to upgrade to the higher travel classes who, lets face it, arrive at their destination at the same time as you!

Summary: Happy to stick with BA economy class

You pay for the company not the quality for BA now.
