I was flying from Athens to Frankfurt on Lufthansa that got many hours late! In Frankfurt I missed my connection to Manchester. There was no other flight except this BA they agreed to put me on it to avoid staying overnight. But the Check In lady told me 3 times "It's a very small airplane!" I got quite scares and ask "Propelors?"
In fact they were very few seats, but it was very spacious, almost a 100% Business plane. Service was very good and the fligh very smooth and quiet.
What a difference from the horrendous last experience with BA in 2001!
