Pre-flight
The upgrade price for this flight was over £350 at check in or £130 at airport - still too much!! Dropped bag off - friendly but efficient agent. Through fat trac security and du free - taken out too much Hungarian florints and therefore got three bottles of spirits at the duty free. Headed through immigration to the lounge area. The old Malev lounge has been gutted and so used the other lounge there. Pretty good selection of snacks and alcohol - in mini-bottles as well ;)) Did some work to pass the time before boarding.

The flight
There was a very orderly queue to board. I was in 6C - this was the row behind club and so the set up is A and C in Club style, so some more space. After take off there was a sandwich - cheese and ham from memory and then a drinks service. Cabin crew guy was a bit "in your face" but efficient. Oddly, club was less than half full and so surprised no deals to get more money out of customers. Flight was uneventful and passed quickly. Purser was also efficient but not very friendly / genuine on this flight.

Arrival
The usual off stand gate. There was a single bus there for the club passengers - all 6 of them. This drove off and the rest of us had to wait a further 10 minutes for the next coaches. Nice for club passengers but suppose not so good for the environment.....and also me standing at the door waiting for the bus!! Hey ho - maybe next time I travel to T3 in Club - never happened before though!!

Sounds like a standard flight with not much excitement! I too hate the buses that you have to get with BA. On our trip to DFW last year fom T5 we till had to get a bus to/from the aircraft :?
