I took a fair number of Club Europe flights with BA last weekend, and discovered the wide range of salads that BA serve on their intra-Europe flights.

So what was the BA Terraces lounge at Geneva like?
After my latest DYKWIA incident at the BA Terraces Lounge at Geneva I remembered that I had not told you about the lounge! Actually it’s quite nice! In truth, don’t get excited.

They are also taking away the option to secure membership in Europe by earning 3,000 Tier Points for each of two…
BA London City to Amsterdam, Club Europe
I had to be in Amsterdam this weekend and managed to secure a cheap BA upgrade ticket from London City to Amsterdam. The aircraft was waiting when we were called to the gate. There was a separate Fast Track line and eligible passengers were directed to the line as our passports and boarding passes were…
