Flight BA2012 Lands Three Years Late?

'British Airways is to launch a pop-up airline themed restaurant in Shoreditch.'


Really? That sounds like an excellent idea.

'According to BA, the three-in-one art gallery, cinema and dining lounge in East London has been exclusively designed to recreate a premium flying experience.'

I wouldn’t quite say ‘exclusively’.


'British Airways managing director of brands and customer experience, said: “We wanted to bring the flying experience to the public. This is going to be an exciting year for the capital!”'

Yes. Especially if that exciting year is 2009.


Notes:

British Airways is the official airline of the London 2012 Games.

Flight BA2012 will be located half a mile from the original 2009 site of Plane Food Cafe.

The food at Flight BA2012 will cost ten times as much as the food at the Plane Food Cafe, no doubt due to inflation.

Richard's other show in 2009 was all about Plagiarism.

Sadly Flight BA2012 is already fully booked, so, to avoid disappointment, Richard may turn up in uniform with his trolley to serve refreshments at the launch of BA Flight2012 on April 4th.
