I travel BA once a year to Mauritius for a number of years now and found flight to be inferior eg in comparison to Jet Airways to India where the inflight experience was way ahead of BA. The food was excellent, bigger screen to spend the time, the odd offer of extra food and drinks. I’m travelling to Mauritius this October with my family and my wife sister’s family and hope that the flight experience would be similar or even better to that of Jet Airways.
