Aircraft: Airbus A321T

Class: First

Distance flown: 2470

Tier points: 210

I’m up at 5am to head over to the terminal. I need not have left so early because the security at LAX was very quick.

I head to the admirals club and to my surprise am given a card to the flagship lounge. This is a huge improvement on the standard offering with spirits and beers on self service and a breakfast bar with eggs, sausage, cereal yoghurt and pastries.

It’s too early for my body so I just take some yoghurt and blueberries.

We board and it’s nice to be getting into a proper first cabin which is lie flat.

We depart on time, breakfast is a bacon quiche (the same as a flight I had from lax-mco) which is tasty.

I watch a film and catch up on the football with the in air WiFi  - it turns out Chelsea have beaten Liverpool, another interesting end to the prem is on!

Land in JFK on time, but we don’t have a gate to disembark the plane so we wait on the tarmac for about 15 minutes.

I’m in no rush as I’ve got a 4 hour wait at JFK. Connecting from Terminal 8 to my

BA flight at terminal 7 is relatively straightforward on the sky train.
