Is UC due for a face lift / upgrade?

So with the outcome of the legal battle between VS and Contour (the compnay who have, until recently, manufactured the UCS) now concluded, and Contour refusing to supply any new UCS (for which they own the licence) what are VS going to replace the UCS with??? They're not going to last forever...

The amenity kit in UC is a joke (considering what PE get and considering what is provided on other similar carriers), and has gone steadily downhill since I started flying UC - its a small point, and I know, not drastically important, but its such a kick in the stomach to be given a small cardboard box as opposed to the old leather hold-all things they used to provide.


Make no apology! The amenity kit is the perfect barometer for the decline and fall of the effectively differentiated branding of the premium product we know and love -- Upper Class. Like the picture of Dorian Gray, the amenity kit devolves with each service take-away into a senile, barely needed bit-bob sat down the end of the ottoman like a vaguely sinister letter. We've gone from Boateng to Bozo. And it makes me very, very sad.

Thank you for your comment. It was very well stated.

Seriously? You managed to find a 3 year old thread but not one from only 4 days ago, that have the words New Upper Class in the thread title?

forum/index.php?f=4&t=273011&rb_v=viewtopic

Plus the most current thread in the New Posts list is also about the new UCS.

Please continue all talk about the new UCS in the 2012 thread and not this one.
