From their FB page:

Keep your eyes open for the business supplement in the Sunday Times tomorrow, we're doing something different, I've had a sneak preview and it's pretty cool!


So, who wants a guess at what it is? :D

Someone please post the article tomorrow, if possible. I will be aboard VS018 and will have a problem getting the Sunday paper!

We might not be able to do so as I believe, the Sunday Times now charges for viewing

The chances are that this is some sort of advertising campaign - so therefore will unlikely feature in the on-line version

How disapointing...it's a translucent sleeve over the business section with the new UC campaign on it.

Not a bad piece of Ad work, and I rather like it...but so much for hoping it was something awesome.

There are 3 pics posted on the VS Facebook page.

Won't post them on here as not sure of copyright issues

BUT they are the ones linked to in the Someone Dosen't like the latest US Ads thread

(and re-iterate Deckers' warning re language in the link!)


(edited to correct spelling or Honey Lamb will be after me !)

It's a sheet of tracing paper over an advert that's more style than substance. Typical VS spin then.

Indeed, let's not let VF get spun by VS's Facebook posing or become another mouthpiece for it. The ST was simply an ad. Slightly different, but pretty boring really, that kind of stuff has been done for years across other print media.

What a load of old rubbish. Just an ad - nothing new at all. Can I politely remind VA of the story of the boy who cried wolf?!?

I think using the words 'pretty cool' made me think it'd be something less than fantastic. Hype is Virgin's game! A cabin launch would be 'hugely amazing' in Facebook talk.

I think Virgin need to spend less on their ad campaigns and a little more on getting rid of that "je ne sais quoi" spilt all over the last few cabins I've flown in!
