PE & UC Question

Apologies in advance.

I have always traveled with VA in class PE, my last flight was in Jan 2016 and was located in the Bubble on LGW 747. The problem I found was a follows.

The passengers in the Economy section of the Bubble, were walking by all the time back and forth to the loo, this was problem due to noise and constant flushing of the toilets.

I am now flying UC on the 787 from LHR in about 40 days time, I assume there are Loos that are used just by UC and not used by those on PE or E brackets?

Any help would be good

CC

I think they are shared with PE but at the rear of the cabin.

Hi CC

On my recent Dreamliner flights the loos are at the back of UC - there was one designated UC to the right of the bar (if you are looking down the plane!) which was large and had a pull down seat - very useful for putting things on when changing into the sleepsuit! Next to that was a normal size facility which was used by PE - there was a curtain between the two doors.

The same applied on the left hand side.

Have a great flight!

The slightly larger washrooms with the outward opening door (rather than the usual spring-loaded split doors) are the accessibility washrooms. VS have these on all aircraft in various locations.

Each time I have flown on the 787, the toilets seemed to be democratically shared with the PE cabin. I often had to queue behind the line of PE pax who were waiting for either toilet. I never saw the curtains shut.
