Flew first class and the only thing that reclined was my expectations.
First class was a huge disappointment
Eira Battaglia of Seaforth, NSW, flew British Airways first class for the first time expecting premium service and got the opposite: cramped seating and food she rated below economy. At Heathrow she argues she had to get past three dismissive gatekeepers before finally being allowed into the first class lounge, which she found inferior to Qantas's in Sydney. The complaint appeared in Traveller's reader rants column.
