Reply to: Interesting proposal from BA

[psychocandy]

I see. So you're one of the prats who stands as close to the belt as possible, with your sprogs all lined up next to you. Not only do I dive towards my bag through the idiots in the way, when I get to it, I make sure I swing it round so you all fall to the ground like skittles.

Not me. Sprogs and mrs sit down at the side. And I never go to the front. Pointless. Just stand back and wait. Easy peasy.

I just dont like someone running 50 yds at full tilt because they spotted their bag just starting its ascent onto the ramp.

[NotAllThere]

EXACTLY. And the number of people who see their bag and dive towards it no matter whos in the way just to make sure they don't miss it

As is the Spanish way...

Racist!

Its interesting that whilst BA are trying to compete with the budget airlines, companies like Emirates are going the other way:

There's a Costa in T5? I've never noticed that before.
You go to the check in desks on the right, then turn right through the security lanes then walk along the corridor and grab a glass of Henriot.

There's even a Hamley's in there now.

There are two things that amaze me, the rush to get on and the rush to get off. At the end of the day your flight will take as long as the bag takes to get onto the conveyor belt at the other end.

EXACTLY. And the number of people who see their bag and dive towards it no matter whos in the way just to make sure they don't miss it and it descends through the gates of hell never to be seen again.

Dont they know it comes back around?

[PokemonStay]

I realise that, I was making a pun on first/First.

But perhaps you can help me, what's it like behind the curtain on a plane?
I assume there are seats back there but do they only serve non-vintage Champagne and does MF not spend as long cleaning the toilets?

There are cyclists going through dropping gel wrappers and with flashing lights.

[Pip in a Poke]

I remember before the days of low - cost airlines you either had to stupm up the cost of a scheduled flight or use a bucket shop to get a spare seat that hadn't been allocated on Brittania airlines or the equivalent. Or DanAir and their BAC1-11s.

[WTFH]

As for MF he was fired from the planes months ago, you might find him at Terminal 5, clearing the empties at Costa

Not pretty.

Hence why I don't usually travel that way anymore, especially when travelling overnight.

The other bit you have wrong is there is no champers, but you might get lucky and get a complimentary Tizer.

Sorry, my previous comment wasn't discussing first / business class, just cattle.
