British Airways or Virgin Atlantic between London & NY?

Virgin is a different class. Big is not best, BA forget it

Definately Virgin. So much more friendly, it turns the flight into an experience.

Definitely Virgin. They serve lovely food and their in-flight entertainment is excellent. I've never flown long-haul with BA though!

BA is much better in economy class. Virgin's economy seats have no legroom and the person in front's seat reclines too far - crushing your knees. Virgin's TVs are notoriously bad too - in any given row of three, you can guarantee that at least one seat's TV won't work. In business class, both airlines are pretty much the same. Virgin used to have the friendlier staff - but not anymore. The beds are fairly good in each. As a frequent flyer myself, I would stick with BA - but only because their check-in staff are usually more helpful (in allowing me to change flights, move seats, check in extra baggage for free etc.).

definetly virgin. They have beds, much nicer food, and its really comfy!

Neither , stay in London , New York is full of Americans !

Virgin. They are particularly good with children. However, BA Club Class is probably better than Virgin. Some years ago, flew BA (Economy) to JFK and the in-flight service was very poor. I went to their office on 5th Avenue to complain and received a free upgrade for return flight! Economy and Club are chalk and cheese.

I've flown to and from US twice-- once with BA and once with Virgin. I swore I'd never fly BA again --they were absolute crap in every department whilst virgin were probably the best I've ever flown. Food space attitude totally better.

yes and £20 notes are free for toilet paper
