Now that’s what you call legroom! On @british_ai Now that’s what you call legroom! On @british_airways A320-200 from Gatwick with the weird Gatwick config with no row 1 on one side. But plenty of space in 1A. This was my first flight on BA’s new Euroflyer. This is their new Gatwick subsidiary launched to compete better on price at Gatwick. It is indistinguishable from a BA flight. Actually I’d say this was better than nearly all my recent short haul Heathrow flights. Crew were on point, super attentive and friendly throughout. #britishairways #luxurytravel #instaviation #instaplane #planeporn
