Just booked our 3 week honeymoon flying out on 2nd December 2019!
Ended up booking with BA as it was Ł700 cheaper for flight/hotel package compared with Virgin, we even looked at DIY and this came out cheaper

Time to start planning!
Any advice flying with BA as we've only flown with Virgin/ TUI on previous trips?

No advice as we've only flown Virgin but well done, I hope you have a lovely wedding and honeymoon xx

I’ve flown BA a few times and it’s really hit and miss... some of their planes can be quite shabby and their IFE isn’t as good as Virgin. But staff are friendly, the food is ok, they have IFE and there is a good choice of films and it was Ł700 cheaper than your other options so really it’s a win!

Thank you for your replies, crossing my fingers that we get one of the refurbished planes!
Will see if we can get some films/ series on our tablets if the IFE isn't great

like you say for a saving of 700 pounds I can't complain!

Don’t get me wrong, the IFE isn’t bad. When I went to New York with them last year, there were enough films to watch to keep me entertained, I just preferred Virgins offering. Remember you can see what’s on the IFE before you go, so you will know if you need to load up on any other entertainment.

Congratulations on your wedding and have an amazing honeymoon!
