Then a succulent rack of lamb and cheese plate – washed down by a stonking Bordeaux – were administered.
Service was good from the off, with the crew being personable and efficient, which was a relief when you consider that the leg was blocked at 14.5 hours! After the pre-take-off champers (obvs), canapes were served up, which were decent enough, with the sharp and tart prawns being the best of the mix. I do love a Dreamliner for the reduced air pressure, but I have to say I much prefer the cool double-window blind in other First blinds, and generally I’m not a fan of the ‘slow darkening’ windows either. The aircraft was a 3.5 years old 787-9 Dreamliner (which I understand boasts the best range of any commercial aircraft), and the cabin was fresh and clean and cosy. Santiago is usually BA’s long flight although I suspect with the re-routes around Russia, Singapore may be in the running currently.īoarding was very orderly, and as per protocol from a Groups perspective, and overall the load was probably about 50% in First. The first thing to say is that actually once again I enjoyed the slightly odd feeling of serenity as I walked to B gates rather than catching the connection train, and I also enjoyed BA’s B-gate lounge (which I still think remains one of BA’s most over-looked and under-rated lounges in LHR), as well as LHR T5’s Arrivals lounge on the way back (which you can read more about here).
#Lume reviews for private parts update#
I know both cabins have been well covered by TLFL before, but given this route is the longest in the whole BA network, and was my first time back in both cabins since the pandemic, I thought a general update review of both might be interesting to some.

I managed to snare a fare around £1.5k in a British Airways Luxury sale for a Club outbound and a Premium Economy return, but with careful planning (and consultation of Seat Spy which I am increasingly using), I also managed to upgrade both legs with Avios, so enjoyed a stint in both First and Club. The city is nestled in a flat plain within the Andes mountain range, giving it an incredibly unique feeling, both as you first see it from the air, and when you are looking out from the city-scape itself (including from the Santiago Ritz Carlton, which will be published soon). Last month I ticked off a pre-pandemic bucket list destination by heading to Chile’s thriving and cosmopolitan capital city, Santiago.
