Hello,
I'm due to fly out to Orlando from Gatwick on the VS015 flight 17/05.
From the stats it seems that we can expect a 747 and Ladybird has been used a bit recently. From that I am guessing the Odyssey system will be used.
Does anyone have the film list for May yet? Would be gratefeul for any other pointers as it's our first Virgin flight for a long time, I'm hoping it's not the exactly the same system as we had before! Although it certainly kept my entertained as a kid.
Odyssey

•2 kids channels (featuring a combination of movies and tv programming)
•8 TV channels featuring music, sport & news, comedy and kids programming plus the exclusive Virgin Travel guide
•14 audio channels ranging from soul to Classical music
•A choice of 35 Nintendo Games
•Moving Skymap display which plots the aircraft's flight path
•In-seat telephones (located on the reverse of the handset)
The Odyssey system is on a selection of 747-400 and A340 aircraft.
