These seats are unsuitable for individuals over 6 feet tall. When the seat in front of me reclined, the spacing was shorter than the length of my femur! The pain and claustrophobia caused a panic attack, and I had to stand for most of the flight. I cannot recommend these seats under any circumstances (unless you are shorter than, perhaps 5'7"?).

Although blocked for Gold and above Executive Club members this seat has some drawbacks. It is a) Slightly narrower at foot end due to curvature of the nose b) Quite close to 1A. This is great if not travelling alone but otherwise the proximity may not be desired c) There is no overhead bin although there is a very large wardrobe The best overall seats in this cabin are therefore 2A/K. The worst (as several have mentioned) are 4E/F because they suffer little privacy and less storage.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/05/03 for Seat 21F

21F is a Rear Facing Business/Club seat. If you are with a traveling companion in 21E, it's nice..but rather odd when it's someone you don't know as there is no privacy wall between E and F. The seat itself was comfortable and I was able to sleep OK, but having to step over the person in 21G to use the lav was just weird. Service was awkward too, as the F/A had to use the little pass-through divider over the 21G customer. So bizarre, but the entire Business Class cabin is like that. Not a good configuration.

I was skeptical of flying on the older 747 after flying the A380 to and from Johannesburg from London. Though I like the quiet of the A380, I must say that the refurbished interior of the 747 and intimacy of the smaller WTPlus cabin was a pleasant surprise. On my flight from LHR to SFO I was greeted with a generous pour(compared to WTP on A380) of sparkling wine in a stem glass before takeoff. The curried chicken meal was of restaurant quality and the little extras like ice cream and sweets/salty between services was nice. Due to the location of the galley and the much smaller cabin, service was much quicker and the nearby galley area was a few steps away for a stretch and place to stand vs the A380. Though the map shows my seat 35J in yellow, there was hardly any noise from the lavatory. The cabin crew were particularly friendly and attentive to my requests. The new seats and video were great. I wouldn't hesitate to choose this aircraft even though the engine noise is louder. The noise cancelling headphones help with that.

YIKES! Whoever reconfigured the business class seat arrangement on this plane should have been fired. They took a perfectly great 747 & added an extra seat (so 8 across) & then reversed half the seats to rear facing & enclosed each seat into a "pod". Seats are much narrower than standard 747. When seat divider screen is down you are looking directly into the face of passenger next to you. There is ZERO storage... no under the seat storage, no seat back storage, no magazine storage. A wee pull out drawer is only storage & it's full after storing your water bottle, business amenity bag & headphones. Tray table & TV screen are difficult to operate. NOTHING can be on floor during take off & landing (not even your blanket).

SFO-LHR - this is easily the best economy cabin on this route. A refurbished, modern cabin with an excellent new Panasonic IFE system (that comes without the obsene footspace robbing equipment boxes that you get on BA's A380's and 777's that also fly this route).

Submitted by Beverley W on 2018/11/13 for Seat 35B

Recently flew SFO to LHR and had seat 35B in World Traveller Plus. The seat was a tight fit and I'm not big. I feel sorry for bigger people like the man next to me. I couldn't even get out the remote control without litterally moving out of the seat. The recliner, back support buttons didn't work properly. The servie on BA has become terrible. The food was bland and tastless. There is not such thing any more of coming around offering warm drinks in between. You only get water and OJ. I'm not convinced that paying double than an economy seat you really do get more for your money.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/11/05 for Seat 22D

SAN to LHR. First I completely disagree with the positive comments about the business class seats on this plane. The unbelievable lack of privacy of having someone facing you about 18 inches from your face is appalling. The seats have no storage space, even for head phones. Complicated buttons for opening tv and trays. More important that the bizaar seat design was the complete lack of service in this part of the plane. All the service comes from a galley two section forward. The flight attendants never bother to come this far back in the section. For the 10 hour flight, I was offered one cocktail, one glass of wine, and one glass of water. Period. When I wanted another glass of wine with my meal, I had to go to galley and pour it myself, while the flight attendant stood chatting and amused. The only reason to choose this seat is if you want to go to sleep.

I was rebooked from a LH flight to this BA flight (B747-4 V3)out of Seattle because of strike by ground staff of Frankfurt airport. Excellent seat and place in the aircraft. It reclines adequately and there are no worries about the proximity of the galley or lavatory. Food is below par compared to premium eco seats with other air lines. IFE is adequate, promptness of flight times exemplary. I slept like a baby.

World Traveller Plus is not comfortable as an accesible Traveller. The armrests are not moveable. Seat 33 B is an alternative decission, as you can move from the wheelchair frontal to the seat. Comfort is quiet godd.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/01/14 for Seat 34A

Pretty good seat. Good amount of space, 2 windows and plenty of width. The only problem was that the tray table was a little difficult to open and close then the seat in front was fully reclined. The seat itself was not bad, if a little firm. One additional minor detail was that the remote for the IFE is stored in the armrest right by your leg so it was a little difficult to access and fairly easy to accidentally press a button if you weren't careful. Otherwise, the premium economy is well worth the upgrade if the price is right.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/01/14 for Seat 40K

Not a bad seat. Right at the front of the cabin so quick to be served and de-board. Also has two windows and a pretty good view out. Legroom was typical BA (not great). Pretty tight for me at 6'1" but pretty standard for economy.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/12/30 for Seat 35K

Excellent seats. No seats behind to disturb anyone and space behind to the lavatory. I didn't even realize the lavatory was there, and walked all the way to the back of the plane. No noise problems at all. There were some minor issues with the lighting and audio controls, but we managed. Eastbound we were in World Traveller (50-ish) and it was eh, OK. Westbound we were randomly upgraded to WT+. Much much better and obviously worth the price we paid.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/12/16 for Seat 35K

This is a fabulous world traveler plus seat and location. You can see out your two windows since tbe seat is just to the back of the wing. The seat reclines and since no one is behind you, you're not infringing anyone behind you. There's no noise from the lavatory behind you because you're not right up against tbe bulkhead. The food was delicious (chicken) and the service was the usual British service if not better. This would be my seat of choice the time i fly British.

Well worth the upgrade fee offer for Extra leg room and width. Great added service touches: Bubbles pre-takeoff, warm towels, expanded menu.

Submitted by Jenny B on 2017/09/24 for Seat 36E

By the look of the seats on the plane we flew on from LHR - BOS, we were in an overhauled version of Premium Economy on the 747. My husband is 6'4" and very happy with the leg room in seat 36D (aisle). I found the seat to be a good width and what I would expect in the Premium cabin - far better that the one in the 777 we flew back on that clearly hadn't been updated. The screen in the seat back in front was larger than you would get in economy, clear and responsive to touch controls. The food served was definitely edible but nothing out-of-this-world!

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/09/21 for Seat 22A

Very good seat - once the seat divider is up, it's very private with the cabin divider to one end and the windows on the other. Great that you don't have to step over someone else's feet when they're sleeping to get out.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/09/02 for Seat 34G

I do not recall a comment on this seat, however, it looks to be the same configuration as our flight back from Dallas on 31 August. The seat was hard and cramped and a reclined seat in front made it even more so. There was also a lot of noise on take off that was disturbing. I note that US passengers seemed to pay far less for the upgrade than we did from the UK where our fare was almost doubled. The service and food were good but after having to switch to AA for out outbound flight on a 787 the contrast was striking, especially the lower noise level.

Submitted by Daniel G on 2017/08/25 for Seat 22K

LHR-SEA, Business class on this aircraft has been a bit updated, so it feels newer. 22K seat for me was perfect, it has direct aisle acess, yet its at the window, and feels pritty private. On the lower deck I would say this is one of the best seats

Submitted by Sara T on 2017/08/08 for Seat 63k

Its a great seat with lost of storage but if the person in the row behind has their foot stool down its didficult to get to the aisle without knockibg them when stepping over. Bad seat donfiguration here.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/08/02 for Seat 17G

While it is close to the galley and washroom, the separating curtain cuts down noise and light perfectly (plus you always know when the washroom is free) Best of all, there's extra hanging space for a blazer between 17F and the bulkhead and there are no bassinet hook-ups (they're at the rear of the cabin so you're furthest away from babies) and you're served earlier for drinks and dinner.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/07/29 for Seat 35D

British Airways premium economy is terrible, save your money. The plane was an old 747 that looked and felt old. The seats were not comfortable and without a lot of legroom. We flew Lufthansa last year & their premium economy was worth the money. Also BA cancelled our LHR-PHL flight at the last minute without any reason. I would stay away from BA premium economy.

This seat is fantastic. Being near the lavatory is not bothersome at all, especially once you put the divider up. This seat, as well as 64A are the best seats on the upper deck. I sat in both seats on 2 separate legs from JFK-LHR-CPT. It feels like you are in your own suite and they are both very private. Both seats have aisle access as you do not have to climb over anyone to leave your seat.

Submitted by Rachel T on 2017/04/24 for Seat 36 A

This seat is highlighted in yellow and marked as "be aware" due to its proximity to the galley. I recently sat here during my morning flight from JFK to London and enjoyed this seat very much. The flight crew did not spend a ton of time in the galley so proximity was not an issue. The seats were very comfortable and spacious. The plane itself was nicely updated and very clean. Service was friendly and promptplenty of beverages were served and the food was delicious. Definitely worth the upgrade over standard economy.

A very good World traveller seat. Bulkhead position gives you a bit of extra legroom. Two windows available at this seat.

Overnight to London from Chicago is around 7 hours or so and the 747 is naturally roomy although some are showing their age (particularly the example I took on the return flight) but BA have done a good job with their WT+ cabin. As much as I am a fan of SeatGuru there seems to be a default yellow rating for any seat near the toilets or galleys. 35K is such a seat but I disagree with the designation as, although it is next to the washroom, there is a wide gap between the back the seat and the wall of the toilet and it was never a problem on this flight. With only 30 seats the WT+ cabin feels exclusive and I would choose this seat again since the curve of the fuselage gives one a ton of space to the right of the seat, as well as ample under the seat in front. There is plenty of room here for a 5'10 person such as me. Well worth the premium (only $200 or so) over Econ in my opinion. The upgraded IFE is first class, crisp screen and ultra responsive. The food among the best I've ever had on a plane outside traveling up front.The 747 is still majestic and I would choose this flight across the pond, in this seat, anytime.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/03/28 for Seat 33F

I love the 747, sadly they are getting long in the tooth these days but BA has kept the cabin looking pretty fresh. I was offered an upgrade to WT+ for a song and it was well worth it. The WT+ cabin is very small and feels relatively exclusive. These front row seats are great - tons of legroom, above even the regular seats in the cabin which are already good. It allows you to get up easily without disturbing your neighbor even from the middle seat. The seats are wide enough that you don't feel cramped. The TV comes out of the arm and I am impressed but the responsiveness and crispness of the IFE. There is also plenty of selection including new releases and classics. A great way to spend an 8 hour day flight if you don't want to splash for Club World. Well worth the couple hundred bucks upgrade fee. This plane was old as I say - the latch broke on the bassinet in front of us, none of the seatbelt/no smoking signs worked and there were alarming crashes and bangs during taxi. These birds are getting old....

I sat in this seat for a full ORD-LHR flight and found it very good. The seat reclined the normal amount and there was no one behind me to worry about. Width was standard and there was a slight gap between the seat and the window. This gave space to set your small bag next to you, leaving the area below the seat in front clear for your feet. Being a lefty I enjoyed having the extra space to move my arm/eat freely without having to worry about getting bumped in an aisle seat. People do tend to gather in the area behind you and there's a bit of gallery noise but there's a partition so no one bumped my seat.

DXB-LHR on 29th Jan 17 - Upper deck in the 747 has a distinctly different and quiet atmosphere and I would definitely recommend it, as long as you don't have problems carrying your luggage up the narrow steep stairs. Nobody stepping over you in this seat. A sleeper service so lights went out right away. Positive experience.

Seat 63J and 63K, BA0295 LHR-ORD 25th May 2016. A quiet little space on the top floor; easy access to both seats. There are useful extra lockers along the inside of the hull, for seats in Rowe A and K. Dedicated service from a small teat for these 20 seats. A great way to fly! Mike

Avoid like the plague! Had this on a night flight - awful seat. Didn't recline much, although the passenger in front of me had no trouble. Close enough to the toilet to smell it. The noise from the galley behind me was very disruptive and the crew kept opening the curtain so a lot of light came into the cabin. Didn't get one minute of sleep. Crew were pleasant though

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/11/14 for Seat 35J

Seats on this aircraft in the World Traveler Plus cabin have their tray tables located in the seat arm, reducing the width of the seat. SeatGuru does not mention this. Although the seat is still fairly comfortable, the width may be a problem for people with a larger frame. I am 6'4" tall and weigh 225 pounds. I filled up the seat such that I had to remove the IFE remote control in order to use it, as did my much smaller wife.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/10/28 for Seat 44A

This is the new refurbished 747 with am all new cabin interior. This has got to be the best WT cabin you will find on any BA aircraft. The new Panasonic IFE system is amazing, and doesn't come with the footspace robbing equipment box disaster that exists on the Thales equipped 777's, 787's and A380's. Truly well done BA.

Warning for 4E & 4F. There is no storage for these seats except under the footrest. Other seats have a locker built into the rear of the seat ahead or the nose locker, as there is no seat ahead, there is absolutely no storage space for anything, large or small (phone, glasses, water bottle)

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/09/01 for Seat 14K

LHR to ORD. The lounge was very busy and I was unable to book a spa treatment despite arriving a little over three hours early. The lady at reception was somewhat condescending. 14K was very convenient as it was close to the door, club kitchen and toilets. As it was on the end I didnt have to climb over anyone to get out. Personally I would avoid 14J as its proximity to the closet was bothersome to the man who sat there. The Club kitchen was somewhat disappointing as it didn't have a number of items listed in the menu. The seat was comfortable although having the storage draw so low was problematic as it wasnt accessible once the seat was reclined. As you could access my seat without troubling anyone else I was surprised that the crew lowered the privacy screen and reached over 14J whenever they wanted to pass me anything. The man sitting there was not impressed. The IFE worked well, the selection was good but the headphones werent very impressive.

Submitted by Rory A on 2016/08/25 for Seat 42J

A bit cramped but middle seat still offered good views out of the window. The new world traveller seats were pretty comfortable for an overnight flight, although under seat space was a bit restricted even without an entertainment box. Also if you're quite broad than you may find the seat a bit narrow. The new IFE is super easy to use and has a good offering to keep you amused.
