Hi all -

We are gearing up for our trip to the UK next month, and we are taking the overnight MCO-LGW flight. I saw about the amenity kits, but our question is do they provide pillows/blankets in Economy?

Thanks!

Yep - they do! Normal strangly plump airplane pillows and some pretty funky red special shaped blankets. They should be on your seat when you board with the blanket wrapped in plastic. The ammenity kits are generally given out shortly after take off with the headphones.

Have a nice flight.

Cool - thanks! We can't hardly wait - we are so excited. Do the outbound Orlando kits have the socks or just the outbound Gatwick kits?

Hi Chazon!

Glad you are looking forward to flying to LGW with VS :)

I don't have any MCO trips in August, so I won't see you, but enjoy it :)

The amenity kit ex MCO does contain socks, albeit the amenity kit is in smaller packaging than ex UK flights. Just for your info, if you are returning to Orlando with Virgin and you are travelling with children, they will receive their K-iD pack on your return flight (ex UK flights only).

Hope you have a fab time and if this is your first time on Virgin, do let the crew know. I'm sure they will do a sterling job looking after all passengers but I do like to spoil a Virgin to Virgin ;)

Take care
