Hi Phil,

Welcome to the Virgin Atlantic experience

I second TBS's request for your travelling class.

When you're back from your trip, you'll have to let us know all about what you think of VS, from a first flyer point-of-view

My tip would be to join FlyingClub ASAP!

Hi all im in Economy/coach seat 48k on A340-300 ive been on short haul flights with ba,jmc,airtours, and tomson but this is my first longhaul ive hard good and bad about virgin. my main worries are jetlag (sleeping) traveling on my own falling asleep and missing food lol. can i get as much drink as a like?
im just after any tips or advice that will help me.

and yes i will post a full report.

48K on the A340-300 has a toilet write behind you so you will get people standing right next to your seat waiting for the washroom.

You shoud try rows 41 - 45 or rows 55 -65 to be away from the toilets.

You can drink what ever you like, remember drinking at altitude is different to on the ground.

Drink in moderation. It may be free does not mean you have to go crazy.

Take a stroll to the galley at the back of the A340-300 and ask the crew for a drink. Some advice is if your drinking alcohol get a glass of juice or water at the same time. The crew will see that your being sensible.
