It's here! I flew on the British Airways A350 Club Suite to see what it's really like. It's the most hyped product British Airways have released in years, and is a flight I've been looking forward to for months. But is the British Airways A350 Club Suite all it's hyped up to be? Here's my honest review.
Check out my written report of this flight with more photos: www.inflightvideo.tv/british-...

Having now done the trip I have to say that I loved the new seat. I agree it is not the most capacious of Business Class seats but I found it more than adequate for my average size. The suite door would, I feel, come into its own when trying to sleep on a red-eye flight as it provides a barrier between yourself and the cabin crew walking up and down the aisle. This is one of the things that prevents me from sleeping well on flat bed seats. Some might find it claustrophobic, others will enjoy having their own private little cocoon I guess. As for the design, I didn't find it cheap and I actually prefer it to some of the other airlines' offerings as it isn't trying to be ostentatious. Whether it stands up to wear and tear remains to be seen of course. The suite door already has reliability problems - it took a bit of work by a couple of cabin crew members to lock mine open before landing. There may well be better seats out there but BA are back in the game as far as I'm concerned.

a shiny new aircraft is always nice but I think British airways is going for average marks overall. You won't be blown away but you're also not extremely disappointed either. Business is still far better than economy and any of us is lucky to fly in any upgraded class. I cant believe how quiet those engines are on take off! Great video Noel!

Skytrax are considering downgrading BA to a 3 star airline. Skytrax said: "British Airways is Certified as a 4-Star Airline for its airport and onboard product and staff service. With some product and service now at 3-Star Rating levels, the BA rating for 2024 is under review. “British Airways is still installing new Club World seats but many aircraft still have the older, poorer seat. First class service and product fails to match most airlines in this category. For short-haul, British Airways is at a low-cost standard in Economy, and Club Europe standards are very haphazard. Despite claims about trying to return to it’s former premium days, service standards are poor and the product is quite cheap.”

Great report as always. I recall flying the Q suite when it first launched and I had to be moved as the door to my suite wouldn’t work and the crew confirmed they were having a lot of issues so perhaps it’s not just BA. Let’s be fair this is a much better suite than their current Club World and I have found the service on BA of late absolutely excellent. Let,s see how things go, as with any new product I’m sure they will be collating all feedback good and bad to ensure any needed improvements are implemented.
@MegaHariboboy
@MegaHariboboy 2 года назад
I was going to say - they are clearly influenced by just how popular and respected the Q Suite is. Noel however does seem to be stuck with the whole nostalgia for the old BA business class - where you have to stare your neighbour in the face during takeoff and landing - simply because it was 'revolutionary' when it came out, yet it is incredibly outdated.

I’m flying a BA 350-1000 in business class from Toronto this October. The seat looks like an improvement but they charged me for seat selection. I don’t fly in business class often but out of about 10 airlines, BA is the only one that did this. Seat selection doesn’t really cost the airline anything so I told them how corny I found that when you’re already paying a business class fare. I look forward to trying the new seat, though.

Interesting comment about the quality of the plastics. I suspect Qantas have done a similar thing with their current newish business seat in the A330s and 787s and I doubt they'll hold together well. I'd also tend to agree about the doors being unnecessary as the privacy is already pretty good and it just makes everything seem more enclosed (and coffin-like).
@MrSnout5
@MrSnout5 5 лет назад
To me, the view across the cabin looks like a call centre, with each person occupying their cubbyhole selling PPI insurance! It seems as though BA have done their usual and crammed in as many units as they can. Allowing just a few more inches of design space for each one would have been beneficial for the passenger, along with a slightly wider aisle - but hey, profits must come before comfort! However, I think that the A350 itself is a wonderful aircraft. I flew on a Finnair A350 from Helsinki to Bangkok in 2017, and although I was flying economy, it was one of the quietest and most comfortable flights I've ever made.
@noelphilips
@noelphilips 5 лет назад

Nothing beats a RR engine spooling up !! Not mention taking off !! I have the impression that BA have too many people having a say in what their Business Class should look like ? The British ( and don't take this the wrong way ) have a penchant for making decisions in 6 months which most other nations could do in a month. Qantas Business is a good example on many of their aircraft ! Breakfast looked pretty good ! I do like the Captain (or one of them) at the door as you leave !! BA are cost cutting in many areas and yet have a great reputation....but have a look at Etihad and see how far they have fallen in terms of food and service across ALL classes of service ! Well done Noel and I look forward to our next flight together!

You keep saying how parts are really thin.... But the aircraft needs to be light to fly! The heavier the aircraft the more fuel it needs... But the A350 is a very fuel efficient aircraft. It might seem cheap and tacky but everything has a purpose somewhere :D

That grid thing was a bit ridiculously flimsy. At least put in some support plastic so it doesn't do that. Because that's going to be broke in no time.

I love those Trent-XWB engines. They sound much better than the new GE-90X’s.

I'm happy BA have decided to toss the ottoman, the new suites look amazing. But I do wonder what it'll look like in a year from now. Thanks for sharing Noel

My concern is the amount of rows, because in my experience lots of rows means a poor Business Class service. Nice to have your honest review, I am sure in a few months BA customers will decide whether to give the seat a thumbs up or a thumbs down.

Thanks for the honest review and like me i'm 6ft5 so this seat would be no good for me, Sam Chui is around 5ft9 so would suit him much better. Personally there's nothing in that cabin that appeals to me. Singapore, Qatar, Etihad and Emirates, no comparison really!!

Great report! Just FYI, electronic blinds are not offered on any A350, no fault of BA.

I flew Club suite from London to Austin for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and generally liked it - I didn't find it claustrophobic, and thought the seat was comfortable. I did try full lie-flat for a nap and it was fine for me (185 cm), but of course not a full night. I agree thouugh that the environment is a bit tacky, dislked the widow-blind, and the door, even though it worked (just) was irritating. Worst I though was having the outlets in the storage locker. The crew on the other hand were amazing, and the champagne very good, and the whole experience (apart from an enforced detour to DFW, which was hardly BA's fault) excellent, and very much better than the day before from Reykjavik, which was the worst medium haul business experience I've ever had.

I’m lucky to be able to travel Club and 1st on BA and whilst this looks a great improvement in every way for Club, I think it was a missed opportunity to make The Club cabin feel a little more premium and a pleasing place to be. All those grey and neutral tones - was it the cheapest trim colour option I wonder? Almost reminds me of those compartmented bland desk spaces in US offices. What about abit of colour to reflect the aircraft livery BA?

The biggest issues seems to be that very rear flat door comes up and scrapes the paint of the front of door with the mirror inside.

sam tate BA are utilising the A350 on BA464/5 to and from Madrid throughout August except on the 13th, 23rd 24th and 31st. On some days - rumoured to be Thursdays and weekends, BA456/7 will be operated by the A350. All of which is not guaranteed of course, you’ve just got to accept the risk that it might not happen. The BA website does not change the aircraft type until a few days before the flight is due to operate. From September the A350 commences long haul services to Dubai and there’s no more short haul trips planned.

I should add the BA456/7 will operate in addition to BA464/5, not instead of.

sam tate basically, yes! That’s what I’ve done and I’m currently at Glasgow Airport waiting for my connecting flight to Heathrow to get BA464 this afternoon. Fingers crossed G-XWBA is there waiting for me! Once again there’s no guarantees but choosing BA464 and 465 in August except on those non operating dates mentioned above is the best chance of getting a short haul trip in the A350.

That looks so much better. And 27inch width sounds so much better. I manage to sleep on air India’s 22 inch bed but it’s a little tight. Emirates seems really tight I’m guessing it’s 20 or just below. Wow you felt that bed was tight? Try Emirates or even BA’s other club world seats

41,000 ft is very high, what is the limit they fly too. The highest I was at 43000 when we had to fly above a typhoon in Korea. I get the feeling you didn't like it, but the service and food was okay. Wonder if Paul Lucas did it as well.
