This trip were flying from San Francisco to London aboard the iconic Airbus A380. I was absolutely thrilled to be back on the jumbo jet and it was a really good flight. Sitting on the upper deck even in Economy can be fairly comfortable compared to other planes or even the lower deck. Legroom space seems to be better on this plane which is a plus for tall people like me. The crew and food were also decent. Nothing special obviously about the food as it was similar to what I reviewed last year on my other BA flights. If you have the opportunity to fly on the A380. Please do it. It’s an great experience no matter the airline and a must for aviation enthusiasts! ________________________________________ MUSIC Elevate - LAKEY INSPIRED ________________________________________ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 0:45 Check In 1:04 Security 1:12 SFO Departures 1:22 Our Plane 1:43 More of Departures 2:21 Boarding 2:55 Onboard 3:14 Pushback & Startup 4:30 Taxiing at SFO 4:51 Takeoff 8:16 Airborne 8:28 IFE System & Screen 9:26 Seat Amenities 9:40 Snack Service 10:12 Bathroom 10:29 More Seat Amenities 10:45 Dinner 11:46 BA Inflight Website 12:01 Top of Decent 12:39 Landing 16:12 Welcome to LHR! 16:28 Deplaning, Final Thoughts, Outro
