V-Flyer

Just realised that our T-60 date for our hols in August is 25th June. Hows that for bad planning! The day when every man and his dog will be trying to select seats at 8:00am, no doubt sending the web server into meltdown.

Yes I'll be there,

And me

4.5 hours after the official T-60 window for my August 3rd flight.....the emptiness of the UC seat map is spoiled only by my seat requests and the apparently always greyed out 1G.

I'll be waiting at 07:59am

Busy lounge with you lot all in there!

I'll have my digit poised too for my UVF flight in September.

I'll be checking for my flights frequently from next week just incase VS try a soft launch before the 25th (i live in hope but expect disappointment)

Every v-flyer will be selecting seats, me included. I do wonder if any one else will be that bothered? When a seat map opens there never seems to be a mad rush for seats! At least in my experience.

12 hours into T-60 on our flight and so far four seats - our two plus two others - have been selected.

Edited to add:

24 hours into T-60 and still only four seats selected. So either a quiet flight, or the general travelling public don't care as much as V-F'ers....

Edited to add:

56 hours into T-60 and and still only four seats selected.

I too will be there for my booked flights. Should be interesting!

Our September (23/09 - 04/10) holiday to San Francisco and Vegas is booked through Thomas Cook, - (all paid for, booked earlier this year) flying with Virgin Atlantic in PE, will our seats become available on June 25th aswell? Or will it be T-60?

Should be June 25th sgilly74

Thanks Mojojo, my finger will also be poised!!!

Any suggested good seats in PE on the VS019 Heathrow to San Francisco?

Have a look in the toolbox at the seat map and ratings section

i will be poised as well lol

Is it definitely 8am the service is switched on, then?

Assuming it opens up at the same time as seat selection has previously at T60/90 then around 8am yes

Oh, that's interesting. I always thought it opened at the scheduled departure time... heh!
