British Airways Celebrates Anniversary of London to New York Business Class Service

British Airways celebrates the one-year anniversary of the London to New York, business class-only flights to New York.

To mark this occasion, the airline took a two-man film crew from BBC's Fast Track programme, which broadcasts on BBC World and the BBC news channel, to film the service from beginning to end. A British Airways spokesman was onboard together with a British Airways gold card holder and frequent flier, who provided interviews from the customer's perspective.

British Airways launched the first ever long-haul Club World service from London City airport in September 2009 with twice-daily business class-only flights to New York. They were given the airline's most prestigious flight number, BA001, previously used by Concorde until its retirement in 2003.
