Advantages: Modern Aircraft

Disadvantages: the food

Virgin Atlantic have a modern fleet of 747 Jumbo's and A340 Aircraft which are very reliable.
Me and my friend went to Hong Kong with Virgin Atlantic and it costed around £530 which I thought was very cheap for the length of the journey. I had to travel to London Heathrow to get this flight which I bought from the virgin website.
Virgin have recently put a large virgin sign in the terminal window so you cannot miss the check-in area, Virgin have an airport lounge but I wouldnt be entitled to go in there. They offer entertainment packs to children at the gate, I was greeted by a friendly cabin crew member who points out the seat in economy. We pushed back at about 22:30 for the night flight and the flight includes a meal and drink.
The Economy Seat Pitch on the A340 is 32 Inches which is quite good.
Overall the service was ok but nothing compared to the other half of the business on Singapore's who own about 51% of virgin
Premium economy is not really that much of a big deal so your better with economy.

Summary: Well maintained planes
