Far too similar to "To Fly to Seve" for my liking.
Assume it was meant to make me laugh (didin't). And are they afraid to use the A333 as it still features a 346 flying over near the end.
There's an associated competition with the new ad for Flying Club members, which one of these items appears more than once:
A photo of Richard Branson
A photo of an origami paper plane
A photo of the statue of liberty

Not sure any of our last few flight experiences came close to this !!! v( maybe spend more money on the flight experience and keeping loyal customers ?| than advertising
Perhaps they should have this playing on a loop in the crew rooms before they board the aircraft
Not one of their best I feel.
Scratching my head at this one ... ?|
There's a plane at JFK, to fly you back from far away
all those dark and frantic transatlantic miles

It's odd...not really sure it achieves anything.
Corporate brand advertising bearing no relation to the product offering in reality? Hold the front page! :w
We can get better, because we're not dead yet
Just watched it again, to give the benefit of the doubt, but I still can't get the message... I think it's very forgettable.
It's a nicely produced ad but I'm not sure it takes the Virgin Atlantic message anywhere.
The 25th anniversary "Still Red Hot" ad told us that Virgin Atlantic was innovative, ground-breaking and different from the competition. "Your airline's either got it or it hasn't" told us the same. This ad tells us the same. To be honest, they could have saved money repeating the old ads.

What a load of piffle.
Always planning a trip somewhere!
I may be in the minority here but not only did I like the production values, I also saw the "Tongue in Cheek" side of Virgin poking fun at themselves

PS. It would be good if some of it rubbed off on those members of crew that come across as surley and disinterested

I quite liked it too, nice little video.
It's not bad, but it isn't great either
Loyal VS Flyer since 2003
Like the advert, well produced. Start ensuring that a majority of your crew practice what you preach, not a minority.
That's all, thank you and goodbye!

Bag of complete and utter bo**ocks !
Huzzah for International Jet-setting !
What is it with VS and its portrayal of female crew?
Nice to see typical gender stereotypes being subverted.... Cough, cough.

+1! Its awful! Nearly as bad as that old BA advert with the footballs.
It's an advert, nothing more, nothing less.
If the success of a business was related to the sense it's adverts made, Guniness would have gone bust years ago.

i think the ad was good but nothing special for which I expected from VS, I think they excelled themselves with the "Feeling Good" ad and it is very hard to follow something like that up, I didn't really feel there was anything majorly "WOW" or "That's different" or from the second it came on kept me interested.
Absolute tosh , a waste of money , and a waste of my time spent watching it !
