flying with british airways?

To the best of my knowledge I've never flown BA to Orlando. We have flown with them twice to NYC and they were really good.

At the end of the day a plane across the Atlantic is just like any other - as long as it gets you to where you're going and on time.

I usually fly to the States with Virgin but went with British Airways to San Francisco last year as it was cheaper. I wasn't impressed. The food choice was a lot more limited than I remembered Virgin's being, and we had no in-flight entertainment system for the first 4 hours of the flight. It came back on for the remaining 7 hours but only partially, as we only had a selection of about 10 things to watch. I wouldn't usually be that bothered by it but on a long flight I need something to do as I struggle to sleep on planes!

It might be that I was just unlucky, as the return flight was a bit better, but I definitely prefer Virgin.
