Scottish Sun28-05-2025
WEST Ham ace Jarrod Bowen is forever blowing bubbles on his Ibiza stag do - as he hit the sea on a private boat yesterday.

Jarrod has been enjoying a relatively low-key stag ahead of his wedding to his former Love Island star fiancée Dani Dyer, 28, on Saturday.
Sources said that after arriving on the Spanish party island clad in fancy dress on Monday, the group spent £2,000 on a boozy lunch at the swanky Nassau Beach Club.
Jarrod was seen leaving the bar topless with a bucket hat and shorts and looked to be enjoying himself with close pals.
The group, who are staying in a luxury private villa, climbed into a blacked-out Mercedes Sprinter after their lunch.

An onlooker said: 'Jarrod seemed to be having a great time and looked really relaxed ahead of his big day.
'They kept things respectable and didn't hit it too hard at the beach club.
'There's no doubt the lads have got plenty in store for Jarrod over the next couple of days so it's bound to get messy.'
The lads, along with Jarrod's dad, had set off in style on a private jet from Stansted Airport on Monday morning - all clad in fancy dress, with Jarrod in a wedding dress.

But their trip has so far paled in comparison to Dani's hen do - with the girls partying hard over the weekend.
Her hardman actor dad Danny, 47, had been expected to be part of the stag-party - with Dani confirming he was joining Jarrod and his pals earlier this year.

But there has so far been no sign of him.
Sources previously told The Sun that Dani and her friends splurged around £20,000 on her hen do - with the group flying out with British Airways last week.

Dani, who shares twins with Jarrod, flew back in a West Ham kit with his number 20 and the words 'Mrs Bowen to be' emblazoned across the back.
They had spent their time partying at hotspots including super-club Ushuaia.
One source said: 'Dani might have flown on a commercial flight but they splashed the cash when they landed.
'She spent Friday night at Ushuaia where they were on a VIP table with a minimum spend of £8,000.

'The next day they hired a boat to go around the coast before spending the rest of the time chilling at the Hard Rock hotel.
'Dani also had a boozy brunch at Beso Beach where her mates put on Jarrod masks and sang Abba songs with her.
'They spent their last night at superclub Hi Ibiza where they had a VIP booth.
'There were some sore heads when they touched down at City airport.'

Sharon Stone, 67, sends temperatures soaring as she poses for racy black and white photoshoot in Harper's Bazaar Spain

Sharon Stone looked incredible as she posed for a stunning black and white photoshoot for Harper's Bazaar Spain for its September issue. The magazine chose icons who 'reinvent themselves without losing their essence' to grace the covers. Sharon, 67, put on a leggy display in one image as she slipped into a black bra and a matching mini skirt while posing on a balcony. The Basic Instinct star added height to her frame with a black heels and also sported matching sunglasses. In another look, Sharon sent temperatures soaring as she stripped off for a nearly nude look. The film star wore a sleeveless robe as she posed in an open doorway with her blonde locks slicked back. For her third outfit, the Casino actress wore a white off the shoulder faux fur garment along with a pair of white sunglasses. In her final look, Sharon clutched a tasselled dress to her chest while sporting a black long-sleeved top and matching heels. Meanwhile, Kate Moss, 51, looked incredible for her cover shoot as she posed in a dark denim jacket and matching jeans. The supermodel also sported a brown belt and let her blonde locks fall loose down her shoulders. Spanish model Esther Canadas also graced one of the September covers and cut an elegant figure in a silver blazer and a black suit. It comes after Sharon recently revealed she once went on a date with rapper Nelly, 50, who is 17 years her junior. The actress got candid about the past rumor during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on Sunday. At one point, host Andy told the Hollywood starlet, 'I mean ... this is crazy enough that I actually might believe it.' He then asked, 'Sharon, did you go on a date with Nelly?' which prompted her to simply respond with, 'Yes, I did.' When questioned if she had gone on a second date with the 50-year-old Dilemma hitmaker, the Basic Instinct star answered, 'No, I did not.' Sharon, however, did not give further details about the date including when it had taken place. The Emmy winner was previously married to Michael Greenburg from 1984 until their split in 1987. She later tied the knot with Phil Bronstein in 1998 but their divorce was finalized six years later in 2004.

'ChatGPT handled my travel plans - one AI mistake meant I missed my flight'

A Spanish couple was on the verge of cancelling the trip of their dreams to South America over a silly mistake: trusting ChatGPT to give them the latest travel information. A couple almost missed their dreamy vacation to Puerto Rico after relying on ChatGPT for the latest travel information. Well, it seems that even ChatGPT can make mistakes and cost us a holiday worth thousands of pounds. ‌ That's what happened to Spanish influencer Mery Caldass and her partner, who were making their way to Puerto Rico but got stopped at the check-in desk for missing travel documentation. ‌ Mery and her boyfriend were heading to the Piña Colada island to attend one of Bad Bunny's exclusive residence shows in his home country before heading to Europe and Asia. The singer is performing a total of 30 shows for his 'No Me Quiero Ir De Aquí' residency, which runs from July 11 to August 24, 2025. ‌ However, tears of excitement quickly turned into a moment of desperation. Mery's story comes as British passport holders were urged to do one important thing before October 12. READ MORE: 'I tried Fox's new pistachio flavour biscuits - there's one thing you need to know' In the now-viral TikTok video, which has over 16k views, Mery is bawling her eyes out and walking around the airport, while her boyfriend tries to console her. Mery explained that she had asked if the couple needed a visa to travel to Puerto Rico, and ChatGPT said they didn't. Speaking in Spanish, she said: 'Look, I always do a lot of research, but I asked ChatGPT and they said no.' For more stories like this subscribe to our weekly newsletter, The Weekly Gulp, for a curated roundup of trending stories, poignant interviews, and viral lifestyle picks from The Mirror's Audience U35 team delivered straight to your inbox. ‌ Although Spanish passport holders don't require a visa to travel to Puerto Rico, they do need an Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA). However, the couple relied on the artificial intelligence's words without triple-checking it. To add some comedy into a moment of frustration, Mery accused ChatGPT of holding a grudge against her. 'I don't trust that one anymore, because sometimes I insult him. I call him a b*****d, you're useless, but inform me well… That's his revenge,' she laughed whilst explaining in between tears. In the end, Mery and her boyfriend were able to buy another flight to Puerto Rico and enjoy Bad Bunny's concert. Although it was a scare, it served as a lesson to the couple: don't let ChatGPT be in charge of your travel plans. ‌ What is an ESTA? An ESTA is a mandatory electronic authorisation for citizens of certain countries travelling to the United States. This allows visitors to enter the country for tourism or business purposes for up to 90 days without needed an actual visa. Since Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States, those from Visa Waiter Program (VWP) countries wishing to visit the country will need an approved ESTA to enter. You can apply for it on the official U.S Customs and Border Protection (CBP) website here. And before you ask, yes, British passport holders do need one.

How good is British Airways in 2025? Here's my verdict based on dozens of flights

How good is British Airways in 2025? Here's my verdict based on dozens of flights

In 2018 I wrote a magazine cover story headlined Broken Airways. I reported how lack of investment had left many travellers flying 'ABBA', or 'Anyone But British Airways'. Based on dozens of recent flights – short- and long-haul, in all classes – I'm happy to say things have certainly improved since then. Thanks to investment by new management, hangar-fresh jets with gleaming cabins are taking to the skies, shonky IT systems have been rebooted, and new call centres mean telephone queries are answered faster. Food on board is improving. But BA's overall customer service, the reliability of some older aircraft, its website and app, and some cabins still need work. Scroll down to see my verdict on each aspect of the BA experience, plus my overall rating. The hub airport: London Heathrow Score: 9/10 T5 is the newest terminal at Heathrow and the best large terminal in Europe. Its glass walls flood the main terminal and the satellite B and C gates with natural light. Before sunrise or after dark, it glows invitingly. Even though it handles some 35 million passengers a year, I find check in and security checks are fast. That's because most customers check in before heading to the airport and use the fast bag-drop service, and all but a few security lanes now have the new scanners which means you're unlikely to have to take liquids or a laptop or iPad out of your bag. First Class passengers and BA Club Gold members can use super-fast, exclusive First Wing check in and security checks. There's the usual retail and restaurant offerings found at major international airports, though Paul Smith, Fortnum & Mason and The Macallan offer something different. Arrivals are swift, thanks to the large number of passport eGates. My tip: I find it is often quicker to take the lift to level -4 and between the main terminal and the B Gates than wait for the shuttle train. The route network Score 8/10 BA soars above all its UK-based rivals with direct, non-stop long-haul services from London to 77 cities via Heathrow and Gatwick airports, as well as 130 destinations across Europe from Heathrow, Gatwick and London City airports, with some seasonal departures from airports such as Stansted and Edinburgh. BA is the only British carrier to fly direct to South America. However, unlike its rivals – Virgin Atlantic, Delta, United, JetBlue, Aer Lingus, and many Asian and Gulf carriers – it does not offer direct long-haul flights from airports in the north of England and Scotland. My tip: I often pick up bargain World Traveller Plus and Club World fares to the US in summer by flying via New York JFK because business travel slumps in July and August and airlines cut fares to boost sales. The fleet Score 8/10 BA operates an Airbus and Embraer short-haul fleet (no troubled Boeing Max jets) and on long-haul routes it flies Boeing 777s and 787 Dreamliners, Airbus A350s and double-decker A380 superjumbos. The Dreamliners and the A350s are the newest and most comfortable. The A380 is best avoided because it suffers maintenance problems and has the oldest seats, including the old back to front seat configuration in business class. The A380s will be refurbished with all-new cabins starting next year. You can check the aircraft type when you book online. It will be listed for each flight on each route. The cabins BA is the only UK carrier to offer two classes in short haul – EasyJet has one class only and Virgin Atlantic has no short-haul services. BA is also the only UK carrier to offer four classes on long-haul services. BA alone offers first class on transatlantic routes from Britain. Virgin's Upper Class is halfway between business and first class. All US carriers have abandoned or are about to abandon first class across the pond. Short haul Euro Traveller (economy) and Club Europe (business class) Score 7/10 BA operates out of hub or primary airports, not secondary airports as budget carriers often do. Unlike budget carriers, hold baggage is included in the price of the ticket unless you choose a hand-baggage-only 'basic' fare. Seat selection is free for those in the BA Club loyalty programme with bronze status or above. BA's Airbus and Embraer fleet is young and most planes come with Wi-Fi and all new leather seats. But the legroom in economy is uncomfortably close to Ryanair and EasyJet on the Airbus jets and the newly-introduced offer of a free bottle of water and snack is cheap and not at all cheerful. Bring back a free cuppa in the morning and a cheeky G&T in the evening! Short-haul business class is not worth the substantial fare premium since the seat is the same as in economy with the same legroom – albeit with the centre seat in the set of three on each side of the cabin blocked off to make sure I don't have to rub shoulders with a 7am stag three pints in by 8am. At a glance: Better than EasyJet and much better than Ryanair (and often as cheap when bags are included), but lacks sparkle. Long haul Economy (World Traveller) Score: 6/10 Virgin Atlantic and the major US carriers offer a few rows of seats at the front of the cabin with extra legroom for a little extra cash. Instead, BA has standard economy seats around 17 inches wide, throughout the cabin. They are arranged 3-4-3, 3-3-3 or 2-4-2 depending on the aircraft, with a meagre 31-inch pitch – the measure of legroom airlines use. I'm 6ft tall and if the person in front of me reclines, I have no room at all, not even enough to read a magazine. The headrest wraps around my head, so I do not need to take a neck pillow. There are no plug sockets to charge phones: USB ports only. The headphones are flimsy. BA's food in economy is as good as any across the pond. Expect pea and broad bean salad, roast chicken with tomato and spinach or vegetarian pasta, and sticky toffee pudding, with wine, beer, spirits or soft drinks. At a glance: A basic economy product with surprisingly good food. Premium Economy (World Traveller Plus) Score: 8/10 British Airways was quick to follow Virgin Atlantic's lead in introducing the class between economy and business and I think it remains BA's best cabin when compared with rival carriers. The seats – configured 2-3-3 or 2-4-2 – feature navy-blue fabric which creates a warm ambience (First and Club World are too grey). They come with a foot rest, a hook to hang a jacket, and a sturdy headrest that wraps around my head, so I don't need to take a neck pillow. The seat pitch is 38in and the width is 18.5in-19in. I always try to book the front row seats so no-one can recline into my face. All seats have a plug socket, except the front-row seats which have a USB slot only. There are pre-lunch or pre-dinner cocktails or mocktails, followed by, typically, a green salad, chicken curry and passion fruit panna cotta or cheese, with wines, beers or spirits. At a glance: It feels special, and if you shop around it can be great value for money. Business Class (Club World / Club Europe) Score: 7/10 The Club Suite, available on most jets except the A380, is a mini suite arranged 1-2-1 across the cabin. The seat, upholstered in charcoal cloth similar to BA's first class, is 21 inches wide and folds down into a 6ft 6in long bed. It has a door that fully closes. The TV screen is a decent 18.5 inches. The table is sturdy – it does not flex when I type on my laptop. All seats have a plug socket plus USB slots. The suite feels as spacious as all its competitors bar Qatar Airways, with its class-leading Q Suite. It's great for day flights but I find it worse than the competition overnight because, once folded down into bed mode, it is not as smooth and as flat a bed as on other carriers. Memo to BA: give us a thicker mattress. There are cocktails to whet the appetite for poached prawn salad, grilled Scottish salmon, and warm chocolate and walnut cake or cheese. Drinks include English sparkling wine, Whispering Angel rosé, and wiry pinot noirs. The only duff notes are the bread, the coffee, and the breakfast, which are all terrible. At a glance: It is a big improvement on BA's old business class with the back-to-front seat pairs but lags newer offerings from Qatar Airways and Cathay Pacific. First Class (First) Score: 6/10 There are 8-14 suites, depending on the aircraft. The door fully closes for privacy and there is a small wardrobe to hang a jacket and trousers. The seat reclines to create a smooth, comfortable 6ft 5in-long bed. There's an excellent Elemis amenity kit with enough grooming products to last me a long weekend. Food includes lobster, beef Wellington, Dover sole and a selection of British cheeses, served with Veuve Clicquot Grande Dame 2015, Nyetimber Rosé, Chablis Premier Cru and Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux. The bespoke crockery is stylish. But even with these perks, BA is outgunned by the latest offerings from Lufthansa, Air France, Emirates, Qatar Airways and Etihad. These all have more luxurious suites and better food and wine. Emirates and Etihad offer on-board showers. Air France, Lufthansa and Delta will chauffeur drive me from the lounge to the steps of the aircraft. Emirates and Etihad have chauffeur drive to and from the airport. At a glance: BA's new first-class suite (due in 2026) can't come fast enough. The service Score: 7/10 After years of 'chicken or beef' service, BA is beginning to live up to its old slogan: To Fly, To Serve. But it still lags Virgin Atlantic, Emirates, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, Etihad, Cathay Pacific and Qantas, all of whose staff at the airport and on board always look genuinely pleased to see me – regardless of what cabin I'm travelling in. When it comes to reliability of its services, anecdotal and statistical evidence suggest that BA suffers more flight cancellations and disruptions than its rivals. The loyalty programme Score: 8/10 Travellers who join the BA Club can earn tier points for a Bronze, Silver, Gold, Gold Guest List status, plus Avios (BA's air miles). I think Silver is the best value tier because you do not have to spend a fortune to obtain it and you can choose the best seats on board for no extra charge, use fast track security at UK airports, access lounges in the UK and overseas, and board jets early. The lounges Score 7/10 There are five BA lounges at T5, BA's hub. All offer all-day dining and you can have a shower. The Club lounges are for those travelling in BA Club World or BA Club silver card holders and above travelling in any class. Gold card holders flying in any class can use the bright and airy First lounge. It has a terrace, albeit an indoor one, where you'll find an ice-cream cart. The Concorde Room works best in the evening where I like to dine in the private booths, with full table service. The menu includes air-dried ham with truffle, followed by chalk-stream trout, served with Hattingley Valley English sparkling wine, Chablis premier cru and claret. BA's lounges tend to be crowded. Changes to the BA Club, which make it more expensive to earn tier points, will help to fix the problem by reducing the number who attain gold or silver status. BA has some great overseas lounges, notably Boston, but tends to lag its competitors, including not just the deep-pocketed Gulf carriers, Singapore Airlines and Qantas, but also Delta whose Delta One lounge at JFK is the best business-class lounge in the US. Overall rating 7/10
