A middle World Traveler Plus seat that has seen better days. The entertainment screen was tiny and poor quality when watching the moving map. The cabin was also very hot on our overnight flight from Gatwick to Mauritius. Service was good but the seat/cabin need a refresh.

I booked a flight from Bangkok to London with British Airways and could only select a very few seats including seat 39A, which was ok in terms of comfort and recline like a normal seat with no one in the back kicking your seat and only one person besides you, however the toilet odour could become obnoxious if it is not cleaned frequently which I had. The galley is not bothersome for a day flight and turbulence you may experience on this seat as one of the worst in case you encounter some due to its position.

Good seat, however you have to awkwardly step over the person next to you to get out of it. Also you have to awkwardly face them before you put the screen up.Nice White Company bedding and pillow, however the screens are TERRIBLE! They are tiny, fuzzy and bad sound quality. I would recommend bringing your own ipad to watch movies on this plane .

We flew GAT - FLL. This plane is VERY old. Seat cushion was flat and very worn to the point it had pulled away from the back portion of the seat leaving a very uncomfortable hump for a ten hour flight. Beware this plane does not have any power ports or USB charging options in this seat. The service was VERY GOOD. The meal was okay. BA needs to retire or refurbish these OLD 777-200 fleet.

Glad I booked these seats for 12 hour flight to Bangkok and return. Due to injury I had to keep my right leg fairly straight and stand up regularly. So 39b gave me a diagonal position to the right, which was perfect. Seat reclined sufficiently to sleep comfortably. No inconvenience from passengers using toilet/galley. Would definitely use again on this aircraft.

Plane is getting very tired (Dec. 2018) and some panelling was coming loose. Little or no room to store anything - you are given blankets and pillows but have to give them upbefore take-off for storage somewhere as there is no place to store them around you. You do not have any overhead storage in the middle 4 seats for the first 2 rows so cannot even out them with your luggage. To retrieve anything you have to climb over legs and, since the flight is short overnight, other passengers e.g. 2D and 2G may go straight to flat out immediately if they get on in Nassau (about 2 hrs after Cayman) having already had a meal on land while you have to wait for yours until you're back in the air. Poor quality entertainment sets. Food was OK (but our daytime World Traveller Plus out on BA0253 had been meat or meat choice - plan ahead!!).
Submitted by Gillian D on 2018/10/12 for Seat 10A
Nice window set up, the engine was not too noisy or blocking too much of the view. However, getting out of 10A required crawling over 11B's footrest. 11A would have been a better seat for convenience to get in/out. 5A also had no impeding footrest but it was missing one of the three windows. The layout is rather claustrophobic-there's no place to put a drink other than on the table, so it's a subpar arrangement compared to AA's business class layout. The 2-4-2 configuration makes things tight.Food and beverages were topnotch, service exceptional. The IFE was old fashioned and low quality. I used my iPad and watched my own movies.

Not the most spacious business class out there - 8 abreast with the herringbone arrangement. My flight business was only half full and there was plenty of room to stretch out. Food was to notch compared to US domestic swill. Service was brilliant - I wonder if on the 3-class plane, the attendants give Club World all their attention since there is no First.

Very old plane, with a large entertainment box under the seat in front, powering a tiny, washed-out 4:3 display. Seat was OK, but not as nice as more modern ones. Overall, the aircraft was in desperate need of renewal, as with so many 777-200s nowadays (Cathay's are no better).

I flew alone, so I looked for a single seat in the business class. The seat was allocated to me by the airline and I was not able to replace it, although I paid for it. the seat was bad and uncomfortable, the constant passage of passengers and crew, the bathrooms, the smell of the toilets.The seat does not allow a comfortable night's sleep. not recommended.

Good seat - the bulkhead doesn't come all the way in front of the seat so you can stretch your legs out behind the business class seat in front without blocking the aisle. The plane is old and tatty but this flight is generally quiet.
Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/05/20 for Seat 40D
When I had other seats to choose while checking in, I wanted to sit in 40D since it is the only aisle available and close to restrooms. Huge mistake. First problem: seat cushion is not exactly flat. In other words, when butt is seated cushion inclines towards a direction making my body slightly incline. Result: I got minor back pain after 10 hours of journey in that seat. Second problem: seat recliner button was not working. I tried to manually force the seat to go backwards but did not help. I slept in the upright position in that 10 hour journey. Third problem: entertainment system. Screen of my entertainment system was fuzzy and non-responsive to touch gestures. Any video I watch gets stuck and I had to get out of that video and get back in to watch it again. I've verified this with other passengers in my row and found that only my entertainment system was acting strange.

If you don't mind the bumping of carts and people as well as the noise of the toilet flushing right behind you and the din of both crew and passengers in animated conversation in the galley then this is the seat for you!You can recline your seat as far as it would go without getting the ire of a fellow passenger behind you.

This plane was old and dirty. The video screens are oddly located so you have to sit up to open them. Mine was barely visible being smudged and dirty. Service is done through the extendable screen between the pair of seats so when is down your facing the person in 2B which is fine if you're traveling with a companion but unnerving if it's a stranger. The seat is very private however you have to climb over the passenger in 3B if he's for reclined. There is a small storage box at the bottom and a charging station that didn't work. Overall disappointing for business class.

Very good seat! You get an amazing view of the wing and is very good for take off and landing as you get to see the flaps and the spoilers in action! The only bad thing is I noticed that the seat I sat in, the In-flight Entertainment was set to the home page, not allowing me to watch any movies at all which was very upsetting. (It was the Gatwick 777-200, Old ones). Also my brother's seat, 22B, was in very bad condition. The tray table was broken and the head rest was falling apart. Watch out on some of these airplanes!

Would be good seat if the interior of the plane was not old, disgustingly dirty and in poor condition (needs to be replaced). Seat 11A is a bulkhead/window seat which allows for direct aisle access without having to climb over the aisle seat passenger. The BA yin/yang, 2-4-2 business class seating arrangement is absolutely miserable. BA continue to install this antiquated product in new aircraft even though it is widely loathed.

Be aware that row 12 being a bulkhead row has less space for stretching out your legs. The other premium economy rows may offer more leg space in total, because you can stretch out your legs under the seat in front of you.

I sat in this row, as a couple, from LHR to PHL and found it the best option in Economy. The seats recline fully and the lavatory traffic did not bother us. It was not as good as our outgoing flight on the new Dreamliner, however. I will seek that plane out if possible.
Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/10/26 for Seat 19K
this seat was comfortable, if a little small, however its close proximity to the wing means that you don't get a great view and it tends to obscure photos. Due to how close together the seats in front and to left side are, it is a pain to get out, unless you have an isle seat there is no hope of getting out whilst the tray tables are down. Anyone who wants to fly to Mexico i would recommend that they spend a few extra pounds and purchase a world traveller plus seat as they have more legroom and are wider. This aircraft is comfortable to fly and i have felt little turbulence whilst sat in seats: 19A 16E 19K and 14G

Difficult to get out of seat if the tray is deployed, even 50%. That is today one must for the garbage clearance before going to the lavatories. Other passengers trip over your feet when passing by. Nowhere to put books, papers, blanket, pillow etc. Very vulnerable in the even of accident.

I was in premium economy. This was a plane to replace the elderly BA767 BA had historically operated on the route. They have managed to replace it with a plane that gives the impression of being just as old! This is an expensive route but with no direct competition so BA can get away with giving is their worst planes. The problem with the premium configeration in this plane is that there are no designated lavatories so you have to use those in the main economy section. The seat fabric looks as through it comes from the 1980s and the inflight entertainment system looks as though it is out of the ark. All in all it is probably worth the inconvenience of flying via Miami to fly on more modern equipment.

We took this plane to and from London Gatwick to Mauritius. It's a 12 hour flight as as a 5ft 9 pregnant lady I wanted to guarantee leg room so opted for 17H.Pros: Leg room without paying extra for exit row or bulk head seatsNo seat in front so ample spaceCons: There is no window, no under seat storage and the row behind the bulk head seats which potentially means you're near 3-4 babies crying!However the leg room was the most important aspect to me and hence was worth it.

The worst long haul business class seat I have ever flown in. Cramped with limited storage space.Seat selection was almost zero on check in (on-line and 24 hrs before departure) It appears that if you want to select your seat on BA you have to pay their extra charge,or not get a choice.Service was acceptabel but food poor and the 'on demand' service had run out of food at lest 3 hours before arrival.My impressson was that BA were short of money and cutting corners everywhere.

I am not sure why the cabin here shows only 23 rows, as we were seated in row 25 and it was placed where row 23 is shown on the drawing. Possibly because BA fitted yet more seats! The seats in our row (row 25) were awful, and narrower than other economy seats. My TV screen was shifted by about 10cm to the left for that reason (as the row in front was normal) I had a measuring tape with me and seats in our row measured about 16 inches wide, an inch and a half narrower than all the other economy seats. In addition my husband's table was broken and sellotaped back, promptly falling off as soon as he opened it. The toilets stink was vile, pretty much the entire flight. Crew kept on spraying air freshener on top of it, which did not kill the smell. It was awful. BA told me that they are free to change the seat width as they please as long as the legroom stays the same. This puzzles me as 16 inches = 40 cm is below the width of an average male back and was about 4cm narrower than seats in other rows. My husband had to move seats so I was left to take care of my child on my own on a long haul overnight flight.

Terrible flight - i asked the attendant to increase the cabin temperature which he tried to do. Made no difference - we were all sitting with blankets coats and scarfs for the entire flight except for the final approach to LAX when temperature finally reached acceptable levels.Seats (in cattle class) were poor - aisle arm rests did not fold up, so many elderly passengers struggling to get out once seat in front was reclined. 43F has limited foot space due to entertainment box. Not up to usual BA standard.

We flew on this Sept 2015 to BangkokPlus points It is flat and controls are quite good.The seat is in 2 sections. The main part plus a tip up attached to the shell of the seat in front. If they line up fine but if the tip-up bit sags (as mine did) its not 100% level.Getting out of this (and all window seats) means retracting the seat, getting the small section from upright to vertical position, the carefully climbing over the legs of the passenger in the next row. It takes a lot of effort to get it right, which I didn't manage. The herringbone arrangement on other airlines is far better.

I must add that I chose my seats carefully. 26D (in World Traveller) has very good legroom and I managed to have a good sleep. 11K (Club World) is a window seat the last row in Business Class and as such you don't have to climb over someone else. 11K is facing rearward which seems weird to some but nothing to worry about really. A bit awkward to look your neighbour in the face, however all divider screens came up automatically during taxi, making it a very private seat.

I am on flight BA198 on 1st April 2015. Just checked availability of World Traveller Plus seast to find that there are only 24 in total with only 4 left to pre-book. 24 seems an unreasonably low number considering the number of WTPlus seats on a Type 4 777 and other planes. There are 4 ravelling in my party and with only 4 left to pre-book this means that we have no choice with seat selection. Having paid to upgrade to WTPlus I find this an unacceptable limitation.

I had a very good experience on this aircraft, contrary to other users' comments. I sat in World Traveller in an aisle seat. The aircraft did not feel claustrophobic at all. The seats and floors were very clean. The overhead bins were more than adequate for my large carry on. I did choose this seat from the Seat Guru map knowing this seat would NOT have the 'box' under the foot rest area. I did note on my flight that the box isn't very big and wouldn't impede significantly from enjoying foot room if I had had that seat. The in flight entertainment is individual screens. They are the older type touch screens, but adequate for viewing movies and flight information, and the selection offered was varied. The aircraft looked well maintained, clean, and the aircraft noise was not disturbing. Overall a very good flight. (I did not comment on food or entertainment as that changes).

Legroom is decent but there is a fixed partition in front of this seat and I (5'10" / 1.78m) couldn't fully extend my legs. There is a foldable shelf in front of this row to accommodate a bassinet for passengers traveling with infants. There is no floor storage at this seat and the overhead bin is 2/3 full with blankets - if you're not the first one to the row you'll have to go a couple back to find a spot for your bags. Overall I'd call it a mixed bag. Will probably try a non-bulkhead row the next time I'm on this flight.

When the seat is front is fully reclined this seat becomes extremely uncomfortable and cramped if you are anything over 5'10". I would prefer row 39 if I traveled on this again which also has full recline.

Exelent food and service, i only wish they would take into account passengers age before giving them a seat next to the window, as I'm in my seventies i found it difficult to step over the person outside while they are sleeping.

We found the seats themselves ok. Problem was, being at the rear of Business Class, by the time food trolley got to us all that was on offer was other people's leftovers: first choice of starter not available so only one other left; first two choices of main courses not available so left with pasta or chicken - did not travel Business Class to eat pasta so had chicken which was very poor quality .. and of course first choice of dessert also not available - went for fruit option and was given an unwrapped banana - seriously. Overall, 50% of the menu - all the best options - were not available. Appalling for Business Class, so our recommendation is if you fly Business Class make sure you sit near the front. Also thought rear seats would be quiet, away from galley and toilets but found the traffic (mainly cabin staff) through curtains into Premium Economy was constant and like Piccadilly Circus at times.

I found the seats to be comfortable and being an exit seat spacious. Only downside it tends to be an area for regular social gatherings and yoga exercising. I had my hand luggage case on the floor in front of me to use as a footstool, much to the annoyance of the gatherers but we paid for the extra space so didnt move.

We had the twin seats at the back and they did recline, but there was limited storage. They are right by the galley but there was never a queue for the loo at the back and any 'unfortunate' smells were covered up by the smell of food/coffee. Plus it was nicer than being seated with a stranger so I will book those seats again.

I was travelling to Bengaluru on this plane and also came back to Heathrow. I must say that the plane itslef is pretty old and the seats were very tacky and dirty. I have been flying this airlines now for seven years and it has been the same story all these years on this particular route. Very unfortunate though.

Whilst service was superb, narrow asles lead to carts bumping seats. Pleased I had no one climbing over me to get out of their seat. Privacy screen irritating as has to be put down to serve window seat passenger. As this is translucent can be annoying if other passenger is constantly moving aound but I suppose better than looking at the face of someone you dont know.8 seats across in business class on a 777 is far too cramped, most have 6

1D on this aircraft is terrible. The flight attendants no longer hand carry any service items. They use a cart to serve drinks, food, and clean up. Every single time they brought out a cart it banged into seat 1D. They could not help as the isle is poorly designed.

I bought this seat in advance for 60EUR but it definitly worths the price for an 11 hours flight without a seat in front of you; but the AVOD system is so old that you cannot hear anything and hardly see something on this old screen; Choose this seat of the space you get but don't plan to enjoy the music and videos !

This aircraft must have been the oldest 777 still flying! Very average seat with the smallest in-seat screen I have ever seen. The picture it produced was even smaller; about the size of an i-phone!The volume was almost inaudible! Very poor for the super competitive New York/London route.

These seats have extra legroom and give you the ability to access the aisle without trampling on the aisle seat. Great seats if you are tall and on a long haul overnight flight

Having travelled in Business class with several leading airlines, BA Club World is NOT up to Business class standard and I will avoid it in future. Seats are too narrow; uncomfortable in flat bed position; have insufficient storage space; no foot rest in seating position; inadequate individual light and I could go on. In both directions, I was pleased that I had chosen an aisle seat as the inside rear facing seats appeared difficult to get in and out of, especially when the flat bed was in use. I had no complaints of the cabin service and food on the daytime flight from the UK but food was terrible on the overnight flight from US and service almost non-existent, but this is normal overnight. The main reason I travel Business class is for comfort and there are many other airlines that provide it better than BA.

Was a great seat, no seat in front of you to be disturbed by when they get up to move around the cabin, plenty of room. Worth booking if you can
Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2014/03/03 for Seat 14F
Standard premium economy seat, but the whole cabin section seems very cramped. 24 seats in 3 rows, in what seems like a very small room.Only one toilet on that side for almost 75 people. The wait for the toilet at the end of a long flight was more than 15 minutes.

The backwards facing window seats at a bulkhead are great in so far that nobody will have to "climb" over you to go to the lavatory.But in general, the seats in club world are far too narrow for business class seats (there is a bulge in the divider that is pressing right in your shoulder) and facing your neighbor can be awkward.
Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2014/02/03 for Seat 5K
If you're travelling alone, 5K (and also 5A) are extremely private seats. You have the window on one side and the bulkhead in front of you. You don't have to disturb anyone getting out your seat because you walk around the back of the seat next to you.

Decided to "splurge" for this $75 seat (available for purchase a week or two before the flight) and it was well worth it for the cattle car section. Sure you must put your items in the overhead bin on takeoff and landing, but that leaves Good 10 hours of using my carry-on roller bag as a footrest. I felt great upon landing using this strategy. It does get a bit annoying as other passengers tend congregate in the area, but i cant really blame them. Other comment is the touchscreens really suck to use. They should replace them. I grew tired at jabbing at those things with little response. Annoying.

We had both 12a and b and it was a superb seat in my opinion. Bulkhead seats are minorly annoying for takeoff and landing, but not having some jerk recline his seat into your knees - priceless! Such delicious legroom and for only a $250 surcharge (offered about a week prior on their website). Keep in mind BA is lame however in that paying for an upgrade will NOT get you an assigned seat. That costs another $42 or so. Cheeky!

I had this seat for my recent flight and all was perfect - little distraction from being near the toilet and also at Gatwick was nearest the exit (port) to get off the plane - great seat and service

These seats are at the end and are window seats where there are no legs to climb over in business class, hence they are more convenient when you get up and down and your neighbour is sleeping,
Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2013/09/07 for Seat 5A
Seat 5A has a window blanked out, and (rear) faces the bulkhead - giving a claustrophobic effect. Plus is that you don't have to clamber over adjacent passengers legs to access seat. Fine for getting a good nights sleep, but no so good on a day journey.

This seat as aisle access and s very private. Extra legroom only drawback the window in the centre of the three window positions is missing. You can still see out through the first window. Good seat overall

Excellent seat and service. The Club World model may be a little tired, but is still streets ahead of most, especially American, opposition. Note that the club seats are not fully flat - slightly kinked. But still good for 8 hrs sleep on a 13 hr flight. The forward/rear arrangement works well , far rather that than some stranger digging elbows into me. Good job BA

All these seats are too tight and strangely designed so laying flat is not very comfortable. Traveling alone and staring face to face to the guy next me was also uncomfortable. The partition is good, but the attendants move it up and down every time they need to serve the window seat. Just a bad design based on shoving 8 seats into a space they should only have 7 across at most. Terrible dinner too.
