In London With British Airways
Here’s a recap of one of the most memorable trips I have ever been on, all thanks to British Airways - If you didn’t already know, British Airways has resumed flying to Pakistan (Islamabad) from London (LHR) after 13 years... and I was one of three lucky Pakistani influencers selected by BA to represent the new face of Pakistan and show the vibrancy of Pakistani youth.
So, how was the experience?
Well, I was seated in the upper cabin in the A380, so not too shabby! 💁♀️ Not only did they spoil me in their comfortable Business class with lavish meals, and their impeccable service, but completely won me over with their warmth and hospitality.
We stayed at The Courthouse Hotel, which was in the best location imaginable... it was SO central. I was told it’s also Shahrukh Khan’s hotel of choice in London, so of course I spent a lot of my time day dreaming about running in to Raj... but unfortunately no such luck - We did however get three amazing days of exploring the city and since we had also partnered with Mile 5, thanks to them and their efficient service, we were able to do it in style. They drove us all around London city in their luxury cars and made us feel like royalty.
On my way back home, even though I was flying business class with BA I got to experience their First Wing and dined at their very exclusive Concorde Lounge. The dining area was very private which I really liked, and the food was definitely restaurant quality. I also liked that the menu was diverse.. I was in the mood for desi and quite enjoyed my meal. Normally, I avoid eating food in airport lounges or in planes but I promise you this tasted nothing like that. Still don’t believe me? Go check out my photos! :P
This trip may have been short but the warmth of BA’s hospitality is something I will cherish for a lifetime..
