Very quick flight, efficient boarding, and clear and thorough instructions and attention from staff.
The flight from Dublin to London was short but they charged for any food or beverage. I have never paid for anything except alcohol on a flight before so imagine my shock at being charged nearly 4 pounds for a cup of tea. I once took an hour and a half flight (different airline) within South Africa and was served a complimentary dinner. It’s minor things like this that might make me hesitant to choose Aer Lingus over another similarly priced airline.
Excellent cabin crew. They helped a number of passengers with mobility challenges and a mother with a 3 year old and an infant. Better than most other airlines by far. Well done Eduardo!
Good, I slept the entire flight so I cannot add many inflight details
Air Lingus was in no hurry to get us on the plane as sat at the gate a long time before they boarded us. Then they leave us on the tarmac for an hour. They were no help to let me know what I needed to do to get home. I had to navigate London Heathrow with 0 help from them.
There was a 6h delay with limited updates . When we got to Manchester the bus took ages to get to arrivals and we missed our train, dinner reservation. Basically lost a whole day due to arrivals Lingus!!
Great. Has a problem with DOB. Fixed 4 us. Led to a 5 hour earlier flight to London!
Amenity kits were never handed out. There was zero friendliness and assistance by crew. Food was uneatable. One drink was offered and no wine, with dinner or before or after. Cocktails and beverages were not encouraged and when I asked for water, none was given. Poorest, most cramped business class flight I’ve ever been on.
I fly to the USA every 6wks on Ave and 99% of the time I fly Aer Lingus. If I fly BA I’m always disappointed. My only criticism is the food. I’m vegan and over the last year it’s got slightly better these last couple of flights but on the whole it’s not good! Salad and fruit salad for breakfast and that’s also the starter and desert for the lunch/dinner and the main is usually rice with fried veg 😳the pasta is pretty good though. That’s been the last 2 meals…. Everything else is fantastic.
The flight was half full and I presume that the next few days are even less busy not sure why they are still charging a premium to change a flight.
I arrived to Delhi one day late without my checked in baggage. I don't have a good way to follow up on the lost baggage via the online website. Here is why: Details: BA 277 from LHR to Delhi India was canceled and I lost my baggage. British Airways via Kayak rescheduled me and the rescheduled flight was with Hyderabad as the new port of entry into India. The connecting flight from Hyderabad to my final destination New Delhi was operated by IndieGo. I made a lost baggage report in Hyderabad as my bag did not arrive at the port of entry. I would have to re-check it in from there to go to Delhi. I did not get a reference number from them. They just told me it would start with "HYDBA". They took my email and phone but have not contacted me yet after 18 hours. The lost baggage online portal in www.ba.com does not let me create a new report because the last leg of my journey was operated by IndieGo and according to the website I am supposed to contact IndieGo. But I did not receive the bag at the port of entry so IndieGo would not have it anyway. This is a circular problem and I don't know how I will get my bag back within the next 72 hours. Thanks for your attention in this matter.
Compared to other leading airlines their business class felt like I was in an economy class that you could lay flat in. It was extremely mid. I think there needs to be a complete revamp of all British airways planes and they should also train their staff to be more attentive to customers not that they were bad it just felt disjointed.
My baggage (1) didn’t arrive with me. I am waiting for it.
This is just for first leg, second leg from London Heathrow to Delhi was the worst.
I really enjoyed the flight…and food and the hospitality but didn’t get the food I requested for.
The plane was ancient, and its technology was in disrepair. None of the charging stations worked, and the screens were barely functioning.
Pretty disappointing. Paid for business class. It was burning up the entire flight. For a 7 hr flight, after the first few hrs. The crew disappeared. Poor service.
CVG to London was a good flight . Thank god the plane was not full . Seating was tighter than any international I’ve taken . We arrived in London 10 minutes early. Had it not been for handicap assistance I would have missed my connection. Had it not been for the extra 10 minutes because we landed early I would have missed my flight . 3 hours and 10 minutes from plane to plane as they were boarding when I arrived . None of that is the fault of British Air but the understaffed and confided security at LHR. Because of this I will never use British Air again unless I don’t land in London . Not the airlines fault but I never want to miss a flight because of the blunder in London . The worst I’ve ever encountered in international travel . Sorry British Air but your home needs better management.
This flight was cancelled at the last minute. We were rebooked on another flight but a day later. We lost a day of our vacation and paid for a night in a hotel we couldn’t use. The flights we were rebooked on (both American) messed up our seating on both flights-we didn’t get the seats we had paid for. All in all, a terrible experience.
Good. The flight was extremely delayed but they rebooked my layover (which took off before we even landed) before we arrived. Second flight made me check my bag but there was plenty of room. Otherwise good experience
