I really would suggest a trip on a Cityflyer E190 or E170. They are fab little aircraft. I think they've contracted an Eastern Airways aircraft (G-CIXW) for this season, too. It's just a shame I've got to fly Iberia again... Then again, it could be worse - it could have been Vueling. Some friends had an absolute nightmare with them last year with the baggage strike in BCN. Let's just say, Vueling's customer service isn't great, to say the least!
Have either of you tried a BA 77W? I'd strongly recommend a long haul trip on one. They're so nice. Saying that, even though I flew to DFW last year on a 77W, I chose specifically to fly from JFK on the way back to fly on a good old 744. I just love them to fly on. Even when you're being bounced through some turbulence they just feel rock solid - the wings on a 77W get a bit flappy with the curvature!
Never been on a 777 or any of the Embraer stuff. Did a 747 years ago (was KLM, not BA) and loved it. Much prefer the wide body like the 747 or 767.
Did Belfast on a prop from Newcastle once. It was when BA flew in to Aldergrove. Can't remember the type though.
