British Airways Trip Report flying from London to San Francisco, onboard one of the amazing British Airways A380's, on a beautiful spring afternoon. A very comfortable flight from London to San Francisco onboard the British Airways A380. We were lucky enough to have the middle seat empty during the flight which increased even more the comfort. However, I must say that the British Airways A380 cabin was the worst A380 cabin I've seen to date: the legroom could be better and the IFE is extremely outdated (not even tactile...). We took off from Heathrow towards the east and quickly made a left turn to fly towards the north of England. We left the UK over the Glasgow area. From there we flew towards the south of Iceland and Greenland. We flew over the south of Greenland, next to Cape Farell. The views were more than amazing. We saw the Sea Ice, glaciers, mountains, bays... Greenland is one of the most amazing places in the World to see from the sky. From there we crossed the Labrador Sea heading towards Canada. We reached Newfoundland and Labrador around 1h30min after Greenland. Here we could see again the Sea Ice. But this time it was the real one: millions of small pieces of ice floating over the sea, moved by the ocean currents. What a beautiful planet we have! Afterwards, we flew over Quebec and Ontario, before entering the US. We flew over the States of North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Nevada, and, finally, California. We landed around 20 minutes late in San Francisco after a beautiful approach over the Bay. About the onboard service, the lunch was served just after takeoff. There were 2 options: chicken or pasta. I took the chicken option. It came with some potatoes and beans. The salad was based on some cereal that I couldn't identify. The dessert was a tiny chocolate mousse. It was tasty, but it was really small. Everything together was a very small portion. 1h before landing in San Francisco, which means around 8h after the first meal, the crew offered the second service. It really surprised me that it was again another full warm meal (without bread and butter). I chose the chicken option again. On this occasion, it was a chicken curry with rice. It came with a quinoa salad with a base of yogurt, and an apple crumble as dessert. The most awkward moment of the flight, without a doubt, was when they passed the coffee & tea service. I asked for a coffee and when they passed it to me it fell completely over me. Luckily it wasn't very warm and it didn't injure me at all. They offered me a 1st Class pijama that you'll be able to see on the Trip Report. The strangest moment in my more than 1.500 flights? Probably yes :) Now it's your turn!
