VA Gold member for me is one of the best 'western' carriers there are at the moment. I've travelled in every class on many service most times. Also, in chatting with the crew on many occasions, they were genuinely happy to be a part of the the crew heading to the Caribbean...they had a 24 hour layover in Barbados. My frequent flights were LHR to JNB and LHR to BGI.

As a former International and Domestic F/A for over 30 years, it is so nice so see a guest appreciate all of the wonderful things a good airline offers and the effort we take to deliver it.

For people who have never traveled anything other than the economy, I'm not going to be picky like other people. Seems like an enjoyable experience. Can't wait to fly from Manchester to Vegas in there!

Who else pauses on the menu, thinks mmm, I'll have that, and then suddenly remembers to their misery that they are watching a video and not on a flight?

"Never been further east than Dubai, and now I'm going to Shanghai" :') re-watching this in 2020 is like a time capsule!

I don't like that the window is behind the seat, big mistake, i think a lot of people would rather look out the window than stare into the aisle. The seat also looks really tight for business and Virgin IFE isn't anywhere near as good as Emirates.'
Great video btw :)

My wife and I are flying Virgin Upper Class in July and having seen your review we're super excited to experience a whole new class of flying. We have saved hard for our trip and by the looks of things will have a fantastic journey from Heathrow to Seattle and then on to Anchorage, Alaska . Thank you for sharing your trip with us.

Hey! Great video, thanks! Especially the large cups and finally well filled :-) Because I would like to have coffee sometimes in the plane. Happy New Year!

Jeez I love Virgin Atlantic but I would be pissed if I paid all that money and I couldn't even look out the window without giving myself neck ache

[jacobcitruss]

People are complaining how “it’s claustrophobic. Its doesnt look comfortable. The arm rests look uncomfortable.” I’d be happy to have a seat that reclines past 25°

[chalayan]

I like Virgin Atlantic but dont like the design. Trying to pack too many seats into the cabin, and looks narrow.

[CrazyArcher]

Is the cabin lighted in purple the entire flight? Okay for boarding, but I think it's creepy after a while.

You bad*** traveling all the world in nice airlines and business class, keep going, fun to watch you!

[dudethatsmycat]

That’s my type of flight. Ambiance, the food, the amount of SNACKS! Favorite airline now

[gabrielfigs]

05:05 I've never noticed that Virgin Atlantic paints the wingtips on their dreamliners like they do on models that have actual winglets! Looks cool when it takes flight and wings get that sweptback look!

[wsyamsul]

love the video..but not so much with the seating arrangements by virgin...id rather face the window than the aisle throughout my journey

[ndlben]

The 787 is the best for me. What a beauty architecture interior and what big windows!

[ethanlol]

I love this! I'm glad I'm flying upper class from Saint Lucia to London

[chemicalbrucey]

Best part about any VA flight by far are the flight attendants! They are not only the nicest I've experienced but aren't uptight and "too professional" if that's the correct term! Nothing makes me more uncomfortable than flight attendants that cant take a joke or are too focused on getting their job done they forget to have a laugh and actually relax with the people they are stuck on a tube for several hours at time with, it makes me so relaxed and comfortable and for some one that's as nervous about flying as I am they really do make it that much more bearable

[laviloe]

Its a 787-9 so it should be relatively new yet the SCREENS aren't up to date and YOU can't look out a WINDOW in Upper class without giving yourself a neck ache...
But in economy if you have a window seat the view is yours.
Uhh Virgin Atlantic.???
What is you doin?
