    Hi folks,
    I need to travel stateside with work soon and i have a choice of 3 transatlantic flights to make a connection for an internal flight.

    So i need your help to pick with comfort being paramount.

    1. Heathrow-Miami (B.A.)
    2. Gatwick-Orlando (Virgin)
    3. Heathrow-Dallas Fort Worth (B.A.)

    Lots of options with my connection so that isn't important really.

    I like flying Virgin but thinking the Orlando route could be a mickey mouse crying kids fest.

    Anyone been Dallas direction before with B.A.?

    You say you are flying soon. What I can tell you is both Virgin's Gatwick Orlando and BA's Heathrow Miami will be very busy with children from Friday March 30th to Sunday April 15th. Easter Holiday time in the UK,
    BA's Heathrow Dallas is currently a B747-400.
    Not much else I can really tell you.

    Am no really sure what answer you are looking for.
    So your choice is LHR-MIA, LGW-MCO or LHR-DFW?
    Or is the choice between BA and VS more important for you?
    Will you be in Economy or Business? (Y or J)

    Well stay away from VS on the MCO route if you don't like kids. However VS have refreshed their onboard service recently so this may be more attractive for you.

    Regarding the other 2 choices, price and comfort should be your guide. Do you want a longer or shorter T/A flight. Can I assume that the flight to Dallas will result in a shorter domestic connection?

    Do you have a choice on your internal flight? Maybe you have a preference for a particular airline.
