Hoping someone can help me with the following.
Flying VS029 to BGI on 17th June, returning on VS030 on 24th June, looking probable that aircraft will be an A300 with IFE being on loop system. I know that the Virgin web site has details of on demand movies but I was wondering if there is anywhere I can find out what will be showing on loop.
Any assistance much appreciated

You'll be on a nice new A333 with the latest on demand IFE.

Hi Slinky
Are you pulling my leg?
Looking at the "Which Aircraft?" section on this site it looks to me that we are likely to be on G-VINE

Just checked & can see my error. Really pleased that will have movies on demand. Had return flight to Chicago last month & didn't like having the reel system at all.
Cheers

You had me worried I thought they were flying A300s!
You can get a list of what's playing on the touchscreens here

Slightly off topic but have all the A330's now been converted to 3 class?

No, G-VSXY and G-VKSS are still in 2 class until October. After October they are going to leave the leisure routes to the jumbos.

G-VSXY and G-VKSS will still be doing the leisure routes along with G-VINE. LGW-ANU/UVF/TAB/GND and BGI on selected days.

Oh THOSE leisure routes

I'd misread another thread saying they are being refitted to LHR spec
