    This BA plane is so old I half-expect to see a 35mm movie projector.

        On American I think they’re actually retrofitting their planes with 35mm projectors. Couldn’t be worse than the overhead screens they still use.

        This graphic from @FT today sums it up. As a former gold card holder I now actively avoid flying on @British_Airways. Numerous colleagues have abandoned BA too. It’s a broken business. All the frills prices, no frills service. #LoatheBA https://www.ft.com/content/d2a98b34-2f81-11e9-8744-e7016697f225 …pic.twitter.com/Hu3wc89P5V

        I was wondering this coming through Heathrow last week, so many old BA 747s lined up at gates such a strange sight.
