Every day, between 2000 and 3000 aircraft fly across the North Atlantic between Canada, the United States and Europe, with London-New York being the single most profitable and busiest commercial route.\u00a0The following, fascinating\u00a0animation by the UK air traffic control service shows 2,524 flights that travelled between Canada, the US and Europe on a single day in August 2013:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"North Atlantic Skies (2014)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6pI77r3oAxw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The North Atlantic skies have been taken over\u00a0by airlines belonging to the three major airline\u00a0alliances:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oneworld.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Oneworld<\/a>: British Airways, American Airlines, Air Berlin, Iberia, and Finnair.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.staralliance.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Star Alliance<\/a>: United Airlines, Air Canada, Lufthansa, LOT Airlines, Brussels Airlines, SWISS, Austrian Airlines, and Turkish Airlines.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.skyteam.com\/en\/\">SkyTeam<\/a>: Delta Air Lines (which partners with Virgin Atlantic), KLM, Air France, and Alitalia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Last year (2014), the leading carrier in the transatlantic market was Delta Air Lines with 9.76 million available seats (11.7 %\u00a0share), followed closely by British Airways with 9.70 million seats (also a 11.7 %\u00a0share) and then United Airlines with 9.55 million seats (11.5 per cent share). The range of Business Class products that are offered on board the planes flying across the pond varies from mediocre (e.g. American Airlines&#8217; older planes)\u00a0to very good (e.g. Austrian Airlines) and everything in between.<\/p>\n<p>These days, American Airlines and British Airways are my preferred airlines to travel between Europe and the USA, mostly because (1)\u00a0I stick to the Oneworld alliance when possible to earn the most useable miles; (2)\u00a0I prefer a stop-over in London Heathrow (which has the most direct flights to the USA) over a connection within the USA itself; and (3)\u00a0I appreciate the Business Class product offered by both carriers, which both feature in my top 10 list of airlines with the <a href=\"http:\/\/turkeyalwan.net\/2014\/07\/14\/top-10-best-airlines-for-longhaul-business-class\/\">best longhaul Business Class<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"British Airways A380 business class London to Los Angeles\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1zVh97nE6TE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The last couple of months, I published several trip reports about my recent flights with American Airlines and British Airways.

Well, here you have some facts comparing each carrier\u2019s products\u00a0&amp; my opinion about the overall winner (you can also share your opinion below in the <strong>comments section<\/strong> or <strong>poll<\/strong>):<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Chauffeur service (to\/from airport)<\/strong>: while chauffeur service is a highly appreciated feature of some carriers (such as Emirates and Etihad Airways), it is not offered by American Airlines nor British Airways.\u00a0Currently, Virgin Atlantic is the only transatlantic carrier that will take the stress out of traveling to and from the airport with complimentary chauffeur driven car service for Business Class passengers at both ends of their journey.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lounges<\/strong>: it is imposible to compare all the lounges of both airlines, but overall, the Business Class lounges of British Airways are far superior to those of American Airlines. They feature a more refined and elegant decor, a greater selection of food (with extensive cold and hot buffets in selected airports) and &#8211; in some lounges &#8211; complimentary Elemis spa treatments. You can read in my trip reports my reviews of the British Airways lounge in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/turkeyalwan.net\/2015\/03\/18\/british-airways-airbus-a380-business-class-lhr-lax\/\">London Heathrow<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0American Airlines&#8217; flagship lounges in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/turkeyalwan.net\/2015\/03\/25\/flight-review-american-airlines-boeing-777-300er-business-class-los-angeles-to-london\/\">Los Angeles<\/a>\u00a0and New York&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=a_d9vZnRk6E\" target=\"_blank\">JFK airport<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fleet-wide consistency<\/strong>: British Airways\u00a0offers a pretty consistent Business Class product across it wide-body fleet of Airbus A380s, Boeing 777s, Boeing 787s, and Boeing 747s. The exception to the rule is British Airways&#8217; smaller and\u00a0aging Boeing 767 fleet, which features an inferior product (still lie flat seats though). When you book a British Airways Business Class flight, you know what you will get. In contrast, American Airlines (now fused with US Airways to form the world&#8217;s largest carrier) offers a confusing\u00a0variation in\u00a0Business Class products across its\u00a0wide-body fleet. The latter\u00a0is\u00a0composed of Boeing 757s, Boeing 767s, Boeing 777s, Boeing 787s, and Airbus A330s, and every plane subtype holds a different Business Class product (ranging from poor to excellent; see below).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cabin interior &amp; design<\/strong>: British Airways&#8217; contemporary cabin\u00a0design\u00a0with its smoothing white and blue color palette\u00a0is more sophisticated than\u00a0American Airlines&#8217;s dull cabin interior, which is dominated by grey and brown colours. British Airways&#8217; design definitely feels very British, while American Airlines reflect its Midwest American roots with functionality above esthetics.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Amenity kit<\/strong>:\u00a0British Airways amenity kit is a\u00a0drawstring bag, while American Airlines&#8217; amenity kit is\u00a0re-usable toiletry bag as amenity kit. The amenity kit&#8217;s content is more or less identical for both airlines, with essentials such as an eye mask, earplugs, wash cloth, toothbrush, toothpaste, lip balm, skin lotion, a pen, and socks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Seating &amp; sleeping comfort<\/strong>: British Airways\u00a0offers flat beds (with 180 degree recline) across its wide body fleet.\u00a0American Airlines only offers flat beds on its Boeing 777-300ER, Airbus A330s, B787s, and its refurbished B777-200ERs and B767s. So, chances with American are that you will end up in a much less comfortable and\u00a0old angled lie flat seat, when you travel one of their non-refurbished B767s, B757s, or B777-200ERs. The good news is that American Airlines is upgrading its fleet (they are phasing out the angled lie flat seats in their longhaul fleet), and the comfort of the flat beds on its B777-300ER and Airbus A330 is superior to that offered by British Airways.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Seat direction &amp; aisle access<\/strong>:\u00a0British Airways&#8217; window and middle Business Class seats face backwards, while aisle seats face forwards, and because of this unique seating concept, you have to jump over other passenger\u2019s feet to reach the aisle when seated in a backward facing seat. In American Airlines planes, all seats face forward (except for their refurbished B777-200ER planes) and most have direct aisle access (except for their B767s, B757, and non-refurbished B777-200ER).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pyjamas<\/strong>:\u00a0pyjamas are only offered to First Class passengers in both carriers, not to Business Class passengers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bedding<\/strong>: American Airlines is clearly the winner here, with a large, thick pillow and lovely blanket, while\u00a0British Airways&#8217; offers its Business Class passengers a thin blanket and a disappointingly small (and uncomfortable) pillow. Unfortunately though, British Airways nor American Airlines offer duvets to its Business Class passengers, so you will relax and sleep directly on the seat&#8217;s cushions (you get duvets in First Class though). If you need a\u00a0duvet on your Business Class lie flat seat to increase your sleeping comfort above the Atlantic, then you will need to book a ticket with Virgin Atlantic or Delta (the latter\u00a0created its bedding in partnership with Westin Hotels &amp; Resorts).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Food<\/strong>: while none of them is offering a fine dining experience, meals are ok with both\u00a0carriers. IMHO, American Airlines offers better food and larger portions. Food with British Airways can be a hit or miss, and I am not a fan of their\u00a0afternoon tea and plastic embedded sandwiches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Number of meal services<\/strong>: on longhaul flights, both\u00a0carriers offer 2 meal services: one after take off, and one 90 minutes before landing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Onboard bar<\/strong>: British Airways\u00a0planes have a walk-up \u201cClub Kitchen\u201d onboard, where Business Class fliers can graze between meals. However, this pales in comparison to the walk-up bar onboard American Airlines&#8217; new B777-300ER, which offers\u00a0a very nice spread of a large assortment of tapas and snacks (a visual delight!) that is constantly replenished during the flight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Inflight entertainment<\/strong>: American Airlines\u00a0is far superior, with large screens (15.4-inch) and an\u00a0extensive range of films, television shows, and audio options. The inflight entertainment on British Airways is rather poor, with small screens (10.4-inch) and a limited selection of films and tv programs. In addition, American Airlines offers Bose\u00a0noise cancelling headphones, which is not the case on British Airways.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>WiFi<\/strong>: onboard WiFi is only offered by American Airlines new or refurbished planes (it works great and is not too expensive). Unfortunately, WiFi is not offered by British Aiways at the moment, although they are currently testing it on one of their B747 planes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Frequent flyer program<\/strong>: even though it recently\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aa.com\/i18n\/AAdvantage\/programDetails\/AAdvantage2016.jsp?anchorLocation=HomePageHero1&amp;reportedTitle=2016%20AAdvantage%20Program&amp;reportedPosition=0&amp;url=undefined&amp;_locale=en_US&amp;repositoryName=undefined&amp;repositoryId=undefined\" target=\"_blank\">devalued<\/a>,\u00a0American Airlines&#8217;s AAdvantage program remains\u00a0far superior to the Executive Club program of British Airways. I explain\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/turkeyalwan.net\/2015\/05\/08\/travel-tip-whats-the-best-frequent-flyer-program-for-uk-and-eu-based-travelers\/\">here<\/a>\u00a0why AAdvantage was &#8211; and still is &#8211; my preferred frequent flyer program (although that article was posted before the devaluation kicked in).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h5><strong>CONCLUSION<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Although British Airways offers the best ground experience (with great lounges), the new American Airlines wins in term of the inflight experience (better seats, food, and entertainment). Nevertheless, the experience will largely depend on the aircraft subtype, so always take that into consideration when you book a flight. These are my preferred wide-body Business Class cabins (in order from excellent to poor):<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>British Airways 747 upper cabin: the small space feels like a private jet (read a trip report in the upper cabin\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XAI4STK7XCI\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>American Airlines B777-300ER;<\/li>\n<li>American Airlines B777-200ER (refurbished) and B787;<\/li>\n<li>British Airways A380, B787, B777, and B747 lower cabin;<\/li>\n<li>American Airlines A330 (ex-US Airways planes);<\/li>\n<li>American Airlines B767 (refurbished)<\/li>\n<li>British Airways B767;<\/li>\n<li>American Airlines B777-200ERs and B767 (not refurbished);<\/li>\n<li>American Airlines B757 (ex USA Airways planes)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s your favorite transatlantic carrier: British Airways or American Airlines?
