Hello,
I’m flying with my Dad SFO-LHR in business class next month, and have several options. I’m wondering what you think is the best. Here they are:
[LIST]
[*]Virgin Atlantic A340-600
[*]BA A380 or 747-400
[*]United 777-200 or 747-400
[/LIST]
Your thoughts?

Welcome [USER=3435]@sfplanespotter[/USER] – are you paying with miles or with cash? If you’re using miles you’ll be better off with the seat that’s available.

I suspect Virgin would be most people’s first choice.
UA business is not bad if it’s 2-2-2 layout or if you can get the side seats on the 2-4-2 layout.
Ben doesn’t seem to have a high opinion of BA business class.

The tickets are being paid with cash. I myself was leaning towards Virgin. Thanks!

Doesn’t Virgin also fly a 787 on that route?

They do, but unfortunately not on the days we’re flying.
