I think its quite amazing to watch a film at 35,000 feet anyway, you'll have a choice of films, and maybe watch 2. The choice is not
too bad for a short flight like that. So the main disadvantage is, you can't pause it if you nip to the loo, so cross your legs !
You are in premium and you have 3 loos upstairs at the moment, which is loads, so, you'll be done quickly ! They are removing one of the loos when they refit the lgw fleet, and adding another row of seats as the 3 loos are too much. By then they'll be V:PORT anyway.

yeah NOVA's OK I fly to FL a lot so thats what im used to!
In terms of PE upstaires I really wouldn't know as I'm a wheechair user so I usually get put in rows 11 or 12..
I've experienced Oddessy three times and VPort twice on my non FL flights

the pause and VOD are the best things about vport, but as long as you plan your viewing NOVA does the job!

I see. shame they are moving some premium downstairs !
The 11 & 12 option on the MCO route is great.

True,
but all good things come to an end!
besides being an AU VSFC member I get loads of op upgrades on non FL routes ..
I guess with the UCS being so new demand is higher and op upgrades will diminish[:(]

Thanks Freeway for getting back to me. I can't wait to use VPort after I've read so many reports about it. I can be distracted by my 5 year old son, as much as he likes now that I'll have a pause button. Though I expect he'll be engrossed trying to play the games!

I know I shouldn't really do this.

I know that there can be an aircraft change

I know I should use the Which Aircraft tool on V-Flyer (and have done so)

BUT

I heard "Mustang Sally" on the radio this morning and have been singing it ever since and so I would love to know, if that nice Freeway is around, as to what are my chances that it will be assigned to VS3 on July 10th.

Of course I will be equally happy with Ruby Tuesday, Tubular Belle, Virginia Plain.....and any VS aircraft which is assigned to that flight :D but it would be nice to know

I looked up my return flight from LA on August 14th (it's normally an Airbus, so that's bad news)... am just saying a few prayers that the "powers that be" decide to schedule a 747/340-600 instead... *sigh*
