Which planes in the Virgin 747-400 fleet have the new vport system? G-VBIG? G-VROM?

Welcome to the forum cruisemaster6,
The entertainment page (
http://www.virginflyer.com/entertainment.asp) includes a listing below each type of entertainment system the aircraft on which those systems appear. The other 747 with V:Port is G-VROC, which also has the Suites.

I have just heard of someone getting V Port on a flight to Orlando on 11th March. Does anyone have info on this? Is V Port coming to the Orlando route....??

Ana,
I am not sure about V:Port on 11 March, it could have been when a LGW 744 went tech, a LHR plane was brought over OR a LGW plane went to maintenence.
As for V:Port coming to the Orlando route, well, after all the LHR 747-400s and A340-600s have been refitted with Suites( then all LHR 747s and A340-600s will have Suites and either V:Port or Odyssey) the Gatwick 748s will be fitted with the new Upper Class Suites and, I think they will be getting V:Port aswell! The configeration will stay the same- with a smaller Upper cabin. I am not sure about the Manchester-Orlando route which currently has a still good system- Odyssey?
