Can anyone advise me if the seats in BA Club World are next to each other, and you can see each other? I’m considering this as an option but have a 6 year old who wouldn’t want to sit apart from me. Is it as good or better than Virgin PE? We have always flown Virgin PE but prices seem crazy at the moment and I like the idea of the bed on Club World. Any advice would be really appreciated

Club World is more like Virgin Upper Class, so it's should be better than PE.

I think there are four pairs of two together seats in the cabin, so it might be worth checking availability with BA before booking.

There are seats which are side by side in the middle row. Window seats face diagonally opposite. I’m not sure if the policy on seating children, however there is a cost £89+ per flight for booking in advance. Definitely better than Virgin and BA PE.

BA business is not comparable to Virgin PE. Virgin PE has 38 inch seat pitch and small recline. BA business has six foot seat pitch and a flat bed. So yes, definitely far preferable to any PE.

Yes you can always see the person beside you, unless you choose to put up the barrier between the seats.

Does anyone know which terminal at MCO you’d fly in and out of? The BA website says A and B which doesn’t help for booking car hire

It doesn't really matter about A and B as there are car hire garages on both sides of the main terminal building where you arrive into having taken the monorails from the satillite area where you get off the plane.

I would recommend booking flight & car together with BA; it then becomes a package with payment of deposit only & final balance payable 5 weeks before plus you earn extra Avios for a package.

Car hire would be with Avis; fully inclusive insurance & join Avis Preferred & go straight to garage.

I believe that A & B are accessible by all for car rental so no need to specify or worry about that.

I would also recommend booking the FlyDrive - no additional insurance to purchase and straight across the road from the terminal exit.

If you book a car with BA, usually Avis, it might take a bit longer to get your car if you go to the wrong side as your allocated car would be on the same side of the terminal as where the BA plane comes in on which if I remember correctly is B.
