Advantages: everything!

Disadvantages: Expensive

I flew from London to New York (and back again) in October 2008 and had a great experience with Virgin Atlantic.

Check-in was so easy with automated posts at Heathrow. 3 of us travelling together took less than 10 mins from arriving at the airport to being inside all checked in and ready to order a drink at the bar!

The flights were super smooth, with a wonderful crew and very amusing captain who made everyone on the plane giggle with his cheeky announcements! Great to see that humour has not dispelled completely in this current day and age. Nice to see a team that are enjoying working together.

The food was as nice as aeroplane food can be. Drinks were plentiful. And all served with a smile, by the prettiest staff I have ever seen.

Blankets were provided to keep us snug and warm, and although not needed, were a great option to have.

The choice of films was great and extensive.

My only complaint about Virgin flights is that they generally tend to be more expensive than others. However, you get what you pay for!

I would certianly chose Virgin over any other airline now.

Summary: a great airline, there's a reason it costs more to fly with them!
