An incredible flight to and from. I almost wish I can find a fault ! To say I prefer a seat that looks directly forward would be trivial in the extreme. The Cabin Crew were the best I have ever experienced , the food well, that was perfect although small one could always have seconds ! LHR Lounge was unbeatable and with staff to match . Faultless ! Am flying again in less than 2 weeks with you of course.

First and last ride on a Virgin A330-300. These economy seats are utterly awful. Pitch and legroom are probably the worst we have ever experienced. Touchscreen so unresponsive but so close to your face impossible to watch. Who on earth put games on a seat back screen. The adult behind kept tapping the screen once she work up at 5.00 a.m. I was already awake due to the awful seats. These are supposed to be preferred. Shocking.

Our flight experience was amazing. Christine our hostess was very attentive and extremely accommodating and gave us some good tips for Dubai. My husband was a little bit disappointed as when we checked in he asked for a bottle of champagne for plane journey as our trip was to celebrate my 50th birthday and our wedding anniversary but we never had or got offered a bottle

The seats are hard. The pitch is not good. I am 5ft 4in and the leg room just alright for me. 43G is not bothered by noise from the toilets. However, due to the isles being narrow - just wide enough for the trolley, my seat was nicked at least four times by trolley. Too many economy seats have been put in making it an uncomfortable experience.

Felt a little claustrophobic in the shoulders bc of the wraparound dividers. But I AM claustrophobic and 6-4, 235. I dreaded how confining the bed would be, but it worked fine; very happy with it. used to sleeping with one foot off. But prefer the old style front to back seats. For example, BA.

The cabin was relatively small but perfect. The crew were very professional and attentive. The food was impeccable.
It was worth paying that extra bit to travel in comfort and enjoy the extensive entertainment provided. The seats are wide and comfortable. All in all a very enjoyable flight.

It's pretty close to the bathroom and it can be very troublesome also Virgin made a mistake and a lady and I got the same seat 62k but was moved because she checked-in. but other than that the flight was pretty good

Washington, DC - Washington Dulles International (IAD)
We did well booking these 2 seats. Almost no issues. Room to stand and stretch. Room to slump and stick the legs out. Once or twice a queue formed for the toilet but no real stress and everyone was polite. Would book again.

Old plane and very disappointing, felt like economy seats, touch screens hit and miss and could not watch the latest Jack Black film due to the sound being garbled, Tui premium much much better!
