Hey,
I arrived in London about 30 minutes early. I managed to navigate through Hethrow (NOT an easy task) and find my way to the other terminal and to my gate. British Airways has a nice lounge for business travelers... again, for $6000-$1000, I'd hope you get something free. In the airport a 1/2 liter of Coke is £2 ($4). The cans they give on the plane and here in the lounge are 150 mL, about 4 oz... very tiny, but probably the correct amount to drink at one time.
Anyway, my flight to Newcastle leaves at 1245p... it's 1148a local time now. I managed to get a few hours of pretty good sleep on the plane... it made the 9+ hour flight seem shorter. As expected, they had a choice of steak or chicken... since the steak might have been from here, I went with chicken. It was pretty yummy. The appitizer was grilled prawns with a salad, which was also good. It might be hard going back to any domestic coach flights after this experience :-) (especially Southwest, the "no frills" airline)
Well, that's about all from here!! I'll try to e-mail from Newcastle!
Steve
