  1. … but you do have to add BA’s extra charges for pretty much everything and face their extremely variable hard product and “service” (so bring your own pillows, blankets, toothbrush, eye mask, food, drink *and* make sure you have fully comprehensive insurance in case of delays, cancellation, lost luggage and service).
