I flew with British Airways Syd to London in March, return 30th April, first class. The service was excellent the staff very attentive out on the new first class return trip 747 old first class. Both trips faultless, would recommend to anyone flying to London. Lounges both Sydney and London excellent.
I recently flew with British Airways from Rome to London on in business class. I was pleasently surprised to find that they have modified their seats so that two people are sitting window/aisle side of the 3 seaters, and the middle one is left empty which leaves more space. Major business class benefits besides this extra space is the lounges, especially the concord lounges at Heathrow, which is fantastic. But this feature may not be on every European flight.
