The British Airways Galleries Club Lounge makes for an incredible pre-flight experience.
After a delicious vegetarian meal at the lounge, I treated myself to a 15-minute complimentary facial at Elemis Spa. I spent some time relaxing in the Galleries lounge after a rejuvenating facial before it was time to board my flight to Mumbai.
3. Boarding and Seats:
Being a British Airways Club World passenger, I had the privilege of being one of the first few passengers to board the spectacular Boeing 787-9 aircraft.
After a priority boarding where I was graciously welcomed on board, I was politely directed to my fully reclining Club World seat, complete with an incredible leg space, high-quality bedding from The White Company, a modern in-flight entertainment system and an automated privacy window.

I always travel business class by various airlines but never tried the British Airways one. Looks really good, especially the seats and the lounge access. I like how it’s a direct flight to London too. Gonna try it soon.
Yes it is really good. Do try it the next time you fly to London.
