I agree makes VS look really cool and is a very cool showcase of the CH for sure. I had never heard of this guy before this video and he just smacks of a guy in his 40's trying to be cool and down with the kids and well...a bit annoying...

I've watched a few of his videos for the flight "reports" as such, and then Youtube decided to recommend me all his videos which I weren't in to.

Everything he videos is always the "greatest"... He seemingly "Loves" BA First and Club, and every other airline that has him...

A good ploy by VS to comp him across the Pond to receive his GQ Man of the Year Award.

I agree with other posters here, but the fact is the Video had been seen over a million times within a week, suggests it is a great and cheap way to get your Brand out there.

Short You Tube type videos are clearly the way forward and VS seem to be embracing those that have large followings - indeed I sat next to a couple of Youtubers in the Gatwick Clubhouse as they went out to Barbados courtesy of Virgin Holidays

IIRC this guy previously managed to avail himself of the Concorde Room in T5 even though his BA flight left from T3. Something that's not possible for mere mortals.

Does TLDW exist, ie. similar to TLDR. Or possibly TIDW.

Never heard of him but I'm sure the teens in the house have. They'll want to use the jacuzzi if I show them this. Is there a lower age limit?

Ugh, I'm so over this. Plus, I have a real dislike and genuine distrust of d***s who wear sunglasses ALL the time, especially indoors, so you can't see their eyes, what are they hiding?

Slightly off-topic, his amenity kit looks different to mine - do they vary according to the type of plane?

They vary outbound UK to inbound UK.

Going by one of his latest videos, EK get a lot more bang for their buck.* (He does say he doesn't get paid for these)
