For many years, British Airways Flight 1 meant one thing: Concorde from London to New York. Today, British Airways Flight 1 has a different connotation. It's a British Airways A318 flying from London City (LCY) to Shannon (SNN) and on to New York (JFK. It's certainly British Airways' most unique route and, let's face it, a British Airways A318 flying across the Atlantic probably ranks up there as one of the most unique routes on the planet. Here's a link to the full, unedited takeoff and landing footage from this flight: But first, are you in the market for some new headphones? If so, please use the link below. Doing so will mean a small commission for this channel, which will help me produce even more content! Now, in this video about British Airways Flight 1, I'll highlight the ground experience at LCY and SNN, the British Airways A318 Club World seat, the British Airways A318 Club World food, the British Airways A318 Club World in-flight entertainment, and the British Airways A318 Club World service. British Airways Business Class has been discussed by other trip reporters at length. Here's my take on what is, arguably, the strangest British Airways Business Class around. Club World is a product with many variants. And this version of Club World is unique to the Airbus A318. It's worth noting British Airways A318 Club World is a special seat design worth taking a look at in this video about British Airways Flight 1. In the end, I'll give the experience on British Airways A318 a score. But, I'm curious to know. after watching the video, how would you rate the British A318 service from London to New York? I'll even give you my decision about whether I think this flight earned the designation it shared with Concorde: British Airways Flight 1

Its taken me 2 hours to get from the City to LHR on the tube and then you have to go though the check-in and security, so even with the extra hour in Shannon, this City airport flight would get you to JFK quicker. Oh, just reading the comments, this flight doesnt even operate any more. Damn you BA!

I flew a narrow body airport across the Atlantic before - the Boeing 757. Note if you have the opportunity and the A220 is available, try it trans-atlantic from London City Centre Airport - hopefully Odyssey Airlines has implemented their service from that airport.

Hi Jeb, thank you for this great video. I really enjoyed learning more about this very unique service, and the detailed and enjoyable manner in which you presented it. Thank you as aways for the time and effort you put into your videos, much appreciated!

Do you have to keep mentioning you are flying with your girlfriend? Not necessary for your reviews on flying. And, you've mentioned her before on several other reviews. We get it already! Like your rating system and that you take avgeek flights.

I realize this a very late(recent)now a new airline will provide a true non-stop between LCY-JFK(no stop in Shannon) using a truly modified
business class only A220-100.
Odessey I believe is their name.

Nice video. Just saying the seats rnt british airways seat designs. There the airbus seat designs. They didnt put in the british airways ones because there wasnt rlly any point in puting them in

I had the chance to fly on Speedbird 1. And I didn't. D'OH! If you have the chance to do something. Do it. You may never get the chance again. Speedbird 1 is gone. BA 747s have gone. Do it!
reply

At first I thought, how could an A-318 fly that far against the wind. But then I realized its small size and reduced payload would give it sufficient range. Thanks for this unique trip Jeb.
reply

I wish BA were still doing these flights but I had the feeling they wanted an excuse to axe them for years. The should move the BA1/BA2 flight codes back to Heathrow using A350s.
reply

As if you're actually moaning about not storing stuff 'there' when you're on that flight haha. God, let someone who'd be grateful to be on that flight be there
reply

The only thing that could replace Concorde is another Concorde. Nothing could match the safety and speed. (Tu144 was unsafe) so no. This cant be Concorde 2. 0
reply

I guess London traffic adds the hour it would take to get from the center to London Heathrow, so it evens out. The experience on BA1 though, would be superior.
reply

It would've been great if there was an airport closer to Manhattan that it could've landed. This would've made it likely a much more traveled route.
reply

Its crazy to think that this video marks the last year of your videos documenting pre pandemic travel. Very interesting. Love your vlogs.
reply

airbus probably named this aircraft a318 so at meetings they mispronounced it a380 and everyone bought it thinking that it was a deal
reply

You basically had your own private jet. Sadly, BA will be retiring this flight and plane soon. I really wanted to fly it as well.
reply

I saw that plane at JFK the other day and couldn't figure out why it was there--good to know what it was doing there!
reply

Ive been lucky enough to fly narrow body across the Atlantic when I flew from Minneapolis to Reykjavik Iceland on a 757
reply

Holy crap an A318 going across the Atlantic? I didnt even know A318s were ETOPS certified to do those routes.
reply

I flew an American 757-200 from Philadelphia to Edinburgh in coach. Absolutely miserable flight experience.
reply

Not the Atlantic but he pacific from Seattle to Maui with my dad in the first officer seat the summer of 2019
reply

when I flew outta Edmonton Canada I went through US costumes at Edmonton instead of doing that at San Jose
reply

Dont complain too much Jeb, Id much rather 2 take offs and 2 landings than 2 takeoffs and 1 landing
reply

Shame the BA baby bus is no more! Would be great to one day see your thoughts on the new BA Club Suites!
