Used to travel LHR to JFK quite often with BA, enrolled in Exec Club (shows willing) and checked in nice and early. Being quite tall (6'3") I used to say that I got stiff legs when flying and was there any seat available that offered more leg room. Only flew standard economy once, mostly upgraded to World Traveller Plus and on occasions Club World. I dressed smart casual and was nice and polite with check in staff.
