V-Flyer

Hi everyone. 1St time post and also a very excited first time upper class flyer. Anyway would like to use the wings club entrance and will be turning up in my car. Can anybody tell me the cost for this service. Need my car parked for 2 weeks. Hope I have given enough info.

Hi and welcome.

Virgin and Purple Parking have an arrangement so you can use your own car at the Upper Class Wing, however to get a price for it you will need to give the Upper Class wing a ring.

All the details can be found on the Virgin Website http://www.virgin-atlantic.com/gb/en/the-virgin-experience/upperclass/upper-class-wing.html
Thanks,
Neil

And its often a lot more than booking direct with Purple Parking, just for the use if the DTCI. A friend was quoted an extra £90, it's not worth it for that much!

Thanks for the reply. Will talk to the accountant (wife) and see what she thinks.

Regards

Paul

Wow, that is a lot extra. We were going to try and use it next year but I agree, it's not worth another £90, especially when using DTCI can now be slower than using the desks due to the free for all policy they now have.

I booked mine today , 6 nights and meet at the wing £139 , over the top but hey ho , not something you do everyday is it

I did it DTCI+PP this morning. Mine was only £9 more than the Purple Parking but I booked really late (i.e yesterday!) so your milage may vary. Just give them a call as the old system with PP meeting you outside in departure lanes no longer applies and they won't drive you through the DTCI on the way out.

Makes booking a taxi both ways a bargain - DTCI on the way in, and someone else to do the driving on the way back...

Depends where you live I guess Paul , it would be roughly that amount for a cab both ways for me from home so I'm not really losing out Tbh, as my best friend said to me once after watching several thousands of pounds go up in a burning caravan 'it's only bits of paper with pictures on isn't it '

Just trying to justify my profligate ways to myself.
