@jj Row 1 is nicer, but the overhead lack is annoying. Outside of Row 1, CE is for me inferior to exit row in ET, as I’m far more interested in seat/leg room then food/drink.
Seat selection on LH is of ever deceasing importance to me, as CS rolls out the seats have no meaningful differences.
The first lounge may not be what people would like, but is vastly superior to Galleries and the 2 contract lounges in T5A. I can’t mention the first lounge without again highlighting the absolutely appalling toilets, which I can’t believe BA fail to address.
