-I have flown Virgin once (LHR-SFO & LAX-LHR), and thought that they were excellent. And just comparing them to a recent flight to MCO on British Airways, they are miles in front in terms of customer service...
What aircraft will you be flying on...A346 or 744?

-According to the V-Flyer website you will almost certainly be flying on an A340-600. Lately 96% of the Tokyo flights have been with this equipment. :)

-So is that better than the 747? Or is there not really much difference?

-hey yea i have just done the trip in Oct on their A340-600, the cabin is stunning, but i am 6.1ft and the economy class seats did not fend well with my back! but apart from that their economy cabin is great! They also have a great entertainment system.

-I fly with virgin to the states a lot and they are the best airline i have ever used, the aircraft all have in seat entertainment, which includes the now staple sky map movies etc.
On my 11 hours flights i now just call them 3 movie flights as that is the amount of films i can watch in that time.
A friend of mine went to tokyo with virgin and said the flight was excellant so you should be ok.

-I have to agree - Virgin Atlantic and their A340-600s are superb. The crew are great, the inflight service is brilliant, meals and drinks are of a high quality and the inflight entertainment (V-Port) installed on all of the -600s is unbeatable! :)

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone had flown with Virgin Atlantic in economy - especially from London to Tokyo. I've booked the tickets so it would be too late to back out anyway, but I would like to hear what you think about them just to prepare myself :)
Cheers
