First BA Club World for many years so was interested to see what it was like.
Check in at T5 was very quick & efficient, soon through to departures & heading for lounge (Galleries South, I think), from reports read on V Flyer our expectation levels weren't high but have to say that we spent a very pleasant couple of hours enjoying a few glasses of bubbly (thanks for tips to request), I particularly enjoyed the views of the take off runway. I missed having flights called so had to keep an eye on the departure screens, I am sure that with the number of flights BA have departing continual announcements would be annoying. Once our spotted that our flight was ready for boarding we headed down to the gate and arrived to head immediately through the priority boarding lane & on to the aircraft without any delay. Our seats were 64 A & K, up in the bubble, champagne was offered & accepted twice before take off. First experience of the current CW seats, cant say I was a big fan of the configuration, as travelling with my OH it was good facing each other but not sure I would have liked it if a stranger had been sat facing me, I certainly would not like having a strangers meals served & cleared across me. My OH chose window seat & enjoyed having the storage bins to hand, I was quite happy on the isle as thought it felt more roomy.
Food & drink served during the flight were all good, no complaints, CC did an a good if rather robotic job.
Smooth arrival in to Vancouver & no delays at immigration which was good.
