I'd love to support you, but I'd only be able to do so by using your TV channel, and it doesn't look like I can get a yearly subscription. Any ideas? It would be so much easier if an annual subscription could be offered. I'd really love to listen to this entire flight here, too. Did you hear the difference in the audio with the new GoPro7? I tried to listen to another one of your older videos, and after an hour, I had to take off the headphones and just leave it running from the speakers, because I could no longer tolerate the compressed audio. My ears rang and hissed for 6 hours after just listening to it for one hour. It brought me back to when I was a kid, and I had a pair of a.m. radio headphones, and my doctor said I had to restrict my use of them to no more than an hour a day, because I'd developed so much earwax. I thought he was kidding me, but now I really do know he wasn't. I need my hearing like you need your sight. I also found out that it wasn't just me. When sound is severely compressed to travel up into the cocleo-vestibular region where the inner ear is, it can compress the fluid in the inner ear where the vestibular nerve is, and according to a chiropractor I worked with some years back, this is why my ears hissed and rang so loudly, even with the volume at 80 decibels. It didn't get much better at 70 several days later. So now we know.

Great video as ever, you really reviewed the product very well and don't just treat it as an ego trip which so many of the big "flight reviewers" do. This is one of the reasons you are pretty much the only flight reviewer I'm actually subscribed to (I've said this a few times) and by my reckoning you're a good few hundred thousand subscribers short tbh. FYI they feed and water you well in standard on virgin too. For a 7 hour flight MAN to JFK we had pre-meal snack and drink, a meal (which as far as standard class "plane food" goes, was pretty good), periodic drinks and afternoon tea before landing. On the way back it was a night flight so we got dinner, then it was lights out and sleep time (as much sleep as you can get on an old 747) and then in the morning a "solid" breakfast. Again, drinks were offered adequately often and there was a snack too.

@@SS-bk2zb actually I disagree. I used to be subscribed to him but I'm not anymore. His fans asked him to fly Spirit (I think it was) because apparently it was terrible. So he did - but he took the premium product. That isn't what his viewers asked for at all and I lost all respect for him when I watched that video. Unfortunately this is the case for most youtube avgeeks i've come across who are basically all just carbon copies of each other. There are very few channels that actually review the product they are taking, rather than just flaunting the fact - and there is a line albeit it can be quite subtle to cross it.

Lounge?? I have ever only been able to fly in the cheap seats (although when I flew Air France from Atlanta to Paris, it was pretty damn comfortable and the food and drink was great), and the closest I got to being in a Lounge was when I walked by them on my way to a seat near the Gate lol. Oh well, if not for us slugs sitting behind the posh the Airlines would go bust. There are far more of us than them on a plane lol. When I had to fly back to the UK....many years ago now (17 yrs)....from the US, I had hoped my wife and her dad would have at least put me in Business Class lol. That Flight (on an American Carrier) was horrible, and I was uncomfortable the entire 9 hours.

Also, in the lounge, by the pool table is a door leading to an outdoor garden with amazing views of the whole airport.

I asked to visit the cockpit in flight and the captain generously allowed myself and my father to sit up there for about 30 minutes. The sky was incredible and the flight crew were eager to chat about the 767. Unfortunately probably a thing of the past after 2001.

Back in 2007 Virgin Atlantic saved my high school Europe trip after our original airline cancelled our flight. They were only 3/4 full that day and comped our tickets and we got to London only a half hour later than we would have on our original flight. Us kids were spread out far and wide across the economy cabin but they took really good care of us. It's been 12 years since that flight and it's still one I think about a lot when traveling. Definitely one of the best, even in economy. I can't wait to be able to fly Virgin Atlantic again one day.

This is a great review thank you! Im ‘flying club gold’ and fly virgin upper class regularly and find their product and service to be amongst the best out there especially on the North Atlantic routes. The herringbone layout doesn’t bother me and even though you can crane your neck to see out the window, let’s face it for most of the flight there isn’t much to see out there anyway aside from water and ice! Plus side is everyone has direct isle access and if your recline your seat fully it’s very private indeed. I get the feeling those that complain haven’t experienced it in real life. After seeing the crew make the bed a few times, I usually do it myself as it’s pretty easy but you do have to get up as it flips over. The food, staff and clubhouse lounges are amongst the best in my opinion. The only downsides are the older a340s which are being phased out are starting to look a bit tired and it seems to be getting harder and harder to book reward flights in Upper. I am looking forward to trying out their new A350 suites though. Keep up the good work

The flight looked really nice. The service seemed great, the airline's staff and crew were all very friendly, yet professional, the plane's cabin looked well appointed and the lighting was lovely. The food and drinks looked delicious and plentiful. So from what saw in the video, the whole experience flying Virgin seemed almost perfect....almost.. because for a lot of people, being able to see out of the window, is an important aspect of the flying experience and it would be a disappointment to have such a nice flight, but be missing that one thing. Isn't there a way that they can keep the seating area private while still allowing the passenger to the ability to look out the window if they chose to?

Because you can fit more business class seats into the space than if you do traditional business seating. 10000000 times better than BA's crappy seating arrangement in business.

I flew Virgin Atlantic once from Miami to LHR. It was a last minute trip b/c I was sent back to a ship for work. A-340 economy...but I paid $50 for extra legroom (no bulkhead / emergency row seat). Absolutely incredible service...and so worth the $50 extra considering I wasn’t the one who paid for the ticket.

Virgin Atlantic are my favourite airline, I use them for flights from London to Shanghai. All classes are exceptional, and the service is second to none. I've flown many airlines, VA are way up there.

Virgin are brilliant, they even tried to play matchmaker with me (in economy), thinking me and lady sitting next to me where a couple, offering to share some champagne, awkward initially but it got us talking, like yourself I enjoy 'my own company' and we where "simply passing ships in the night" I didn't even get her name.

I am convinced at how good it is so will book upper class with them on my next long haul trip. The last time I flew VS I was allowed in the cockpit during the cruise and was allowed to change the heading on the autopilot which initiated a turn it was a long time ago and having a relative who worked for them meant extra privileges.

My virgin Atlantic flight lax to heathrow premium economy was almost the equivalent of business class on other airlines. The cabin crew attentiveness was outstanding. Never had to ask for a refill on my beverage of choice. This was 4 years ago.

Virgin are the best airline i have flown with, one thing i always make sure of is that i sit on the opposite side of the aircraft to the one thats going to be facing the sun, as it can be a nuisance in flight

Very interesting video. I have flown quite a lot in my life but never with Virgin or in a 787. The first time I went to LA was in a Laker Airways DC10 and you were able to smoke at the back! Also no entertainment, so you just took a good book.
