First flight with TUI to Cancun from Manchester
Posted: 22 May 2019, 11:09My first flight on a 787-9 to Cancun for a wedding from Manchester Friday 12th April 2019. Arrived to check in to premium all ok and went off up to the escape lounge which was very busy. Nearly went to the V Room by mistake 
not bad but very busy, had the same type of offering as V Room so had breakfast and left to go shopping 
we made our way to our flight via the airbridge and sat in 8a/c left at 9.50 on time and settled in. This seat was the same as the A330 premium, nice screen but limited films etc. drinks and snacks served ok. Lunch menu Winter menu issue 1, some salad mix up. green curry, beef in ale, mushroom spinach pasta. I had beef ok but we had snacks and some cake with us. Hubby passed nothing to tempt him. the after noon light snack was soft roll and ham scone and jam and a chocolate sweet. did the job. smooth landing then 1 hour wait for security and then cases, a mad dash past the taxi sellers and onto our coach to Playa del carmen. Hotel RUI palace was lovely. Not our usual Virgin trip but was ok.
