This journey was made very pleasant as a result of several factors. The Virgin staff looked after me and my wife impeccably, always attentive and nothing was too much trouble, food was fine and the constant flow of soft drinks and tea/coffee was more than sufficient. The variety of entertainment was bountiful, the seats were comfortable and the journey was smooth. All in all despite a 10 hour travel time a very enjoyable experience. | |||||||

Back row in the bubble. Fantastic seat, plenty of leg room, and didn’t have to worry about reclining the seat as nobody behind. The overhead locker was full, but they have ‘wardrobes’ which were fine. Plenty of room to get up and walk about too. I have to say, although I was in economy, I felt I was in first class. The plane/seat and an amazing crew, I cannot praise highly enough. | |||||||

These seats are in the upper section of the 747-400 just behind the business class seats in a generally quieter section of the aircraft. Legroom good and less wait for using the toilet facilities - albeit you use the one's in Business class who may not be so pleased that they are having to share these with those who paid less for their fare. | |||||||

First time flyer so let's go in style.. Flew in the bubble on a premium ticket. Excellent no faults at all and Adie and Andrea were my cabin crew team and did an excellent job.. If you get chance fly the bubble premium.. The 747 400 jumbo was called Ruby Tuesday and it was a virgin holiday package to see the new year in in Times Sq New York | |||||||

Excellent flight. Virgin's Upper Class is exceptional. Very comfortable lie flat seat (with sleep bedding if desired). Nice "jump seat" allows companion dining. Surprisingly good food and beverages. Wide choice of entertainment options. Caution selecting row 6 or 7 as these lack overhead bins. Area around all seat "suites" lack sufficient storage space. Only way to go very long haul! | |||||||

Last row of extra legroom seats. If you have knee problems the extra room still not enough to have a comfortable long haul flight. Seat itself very comfortable but not enough room between seats and I gave up trying to eat a meal with two adults either side of me doing the same. The entertainment seat back was good. | |||||||

Seat wide enough for an old woman with a broad beam and arthritis. Plenty of legroom for a 5’ 4”.person. Staff attentive and helpful most of the time especially on the outward journey. Buggy driver in Gatwick exceptionally helpful on return journey especially as I was in considerable pain. Apologised when foreign passengers were questioned by security holding us up. | |||||||

Enjoyed the flight immensely with excellent service from the air hostesses. They were very efficient and friendly. The food was good and more than enough for me. Unfortunately I had a lady in front of me eith her seat reclined and she couldn't stay still, bumping the seat all the time but that's part of flying I suppose. | |||||||

Awful - the entertainment consuls are aged and virtually unresponsive - sore finger from using them - can't set volume - it's either to loud or too quiet. Seats are ancient - no damping on the recline and have 3 - 4 inches of flex in them when person in front moves. Avoid these old heaps like the plague. | |||||||

I don't know who complained about this seat. Legroom was great, seat extremely comfortable, and wotj no ome behind you, ypu can recline as much as possible. Food was good (altjoigh they handed oit thr wrong menus), and the entertainment system very easy to use. Exactly what one would expect in premium economy. | |||||||
