This flight was actually VS115 LGW to MCO due to a 20hour delay on VS15 the day before [n][n][n]

Check in was easy once I found UC check in... behind the PE and Econ check ins [:?]

Went to the V Room [:(!] for a quick coffee and Danish before the flight, thankfully due to a 9AM departure it was quite quiet, I will post my views on the V Room in another thread.

Boarding was called and UC was almost full which was a surprise as there were only 7 UC passengers booked on the cancelled VS15 and this flight was supposed to be only the VS15 passengers.

Champagne flowed freely and the crew were very friendly although I got no names and never saw the supervisor, also no explanation of how the suite work although this was my first UC flight.

Spent most of the flight chatting to a couple I had met on our enforced overnight stay at the Hilton and the flight went quickly. All passengers except the three of us went to sleep.

Had an interesting experience when we saw two of the passengers in UC who were not on yesterdays flight spending a lot of time kissing and cuddling and then later when they both go out of the same suite together looking like they had just earned their 'mile high club' card [:w]

Food was superb, I has the Seasonal leaf salad with feta cheese, chorizo ham, olives and chive vinaigrette dressing which was scrummy followed by Braised beef olives in a red wine gravy served with Lyonnaise potatoes, buttered beans and carrots which was to die for and Spotted dick pudding with custard which was rather pleasant, and of course cheese [:I]

Afternoon tea was some OK sandwiches and a scone.

Arrival was simple and bags arrived very quickly.

Overall a very good flight

Thank you for the TR, glad you had a good flight. It is reassuring to hear that you enjoyed the food as so often nowadays it lets Virgin down.

Hey thanks for the TR glad you had a good flight. I took the other VS 15 out that day and we were full in J. Hope the day lost didn't spoil your holiday. Surprised the FSM didn't come and introduce herself? Hope you enjoyed the Florida sunsine.

Were they a couple or did they just meet on the flight? [:p]

You were lucky with your beef olives - the ones I had a few weeks back were gross! Why don't they just do chicken tikka masala and shepherds pie?!?

Hope you've had a good time in Orlando? I'm off to see the mouse in a matter of days - yippee!
