Rio would be nice and Toronto too.

A new UCS with the best bits of the UCDS (like the recline. I found the recline to be a lot better with the UCDS so much so that I could nap without converting to a bed. It's still not brilliant, but it's a lot better.

And maybe x-plane questionnaires for all pax over a period to get a better view of the majority requirements (and definitely an overhaul of the questions asked).

And please stop cutting down on services while increasing prices and include your fuel surcharge etc in the base fare so I don't get an email telling me to fly to NY from $250 and end up with a total fare of $600+

As you can see there is a set menu that you can preorder off of, depending on where you are departing from.

Looks like the crumble will be that bonus that really makes a flight the best for you one day :P


Thanks for that joey. :) i studied about it |:)

Ok so following on from what honeylamb and you guys have said how about this for the 'book the cook' service; The menu gets published on the MMB at say T-30 for the flight being taken (VS would know what the menu is) and the 'book the cook' is for main and dessert (i really want that crumble lol). Perhaps you could pick 1st and 2nd choice? that way you wouldnt have to be disappointed that when you get on the flight the onboard menu was different.

OH :0 I remembered a wish!
The first time I flew VS to NYC back in the late '90s the deciding factor was because I could play super mario bros (the platform version) on the IFE and thats how my VS journey started.

I seem to recall someone here mentioned that VS had lost the license to host Nintendo games but I would love it if some super cool games could make a return, well specifically Mario lol

Ooh I agree with this, on my first virgin flight in 2002 to NYC Mario games were what sold me on the virgin brand too as I have got older I'm less fussed about Mario but would like to see a return :D

Yeah that's bad :-(
But how about a hand controller only for gaming?

How about mario kart?
I miss the old platform version of mario
The newer 3D versions are as fun to play IMO. They seem a bit slow.

Agree with all of that. y) I don't think we'll see Toronto, though - sadly.
