Can anyone tell me if British Airways now has the reinforced cockpit doors which the US carriers have? I haven't been especially freaked out about terrorism when flying but I'll be on BA through London in May and I guess it would be nice to feel as secure as possible. :)

Thanks!

I'm sure Royd will provide more info... but this is what I was able to find, with the link.

installation of the very latest reinforced, bulletproof cockpit doors on all our fleet of 330 aircraft

Now, why didn't I think of that?? :) I've been haunting BA.com about every other thing ("WILL THEY FEED ME??").

Thank you for being my auxiliary brain today. I feel better.

I am glad you asked this question Angela. I was looking at the BA website also. I found the info that Mark directed you to but now have kind of a dumb question about it also.


Does the fleet of 330 aircraft mean :

They have 330 aircraft that all have reinforced doors
OR
Is the 330 aircraft a type of plane.

I know, silly question but i don't know much about airplanes.:blush:

Also do any of the Brittish pilots know it British Airways has air marshalls on board planes??

Security is not a good subject to talk about in a public forum.
