In Flight Entertainment
As a minimum you'll have eight different TV channels. We've got a great range of movies, comedy, sport, drama and kids' programmes to choose from, not to mention channels playing every type of music.

On many flights there are even more channels to chose from plus Nintendo and PC games on many of our routes and Sky Map, which uses flight deck technology to show you exactly where you are in the world at any time. And don't forget your free ice cream during your movie.

If you are one of those people that likes to watch your favourite movies over and over again, you'll love our latest in-flight entertainment system. It offers the biggest choice of movies, with video-on-demand so you can pause, play, rewind or fast forward just like at home.
 
Kids
We've got lots to keep the little, and not so little ones, amused. When you're flying with children and flying with us, everyone has fun. That's because we've got loads to keep the little, and not so little ones amused including a great backpack full of goodies and their own TV shows and meals.
 
Food, Drink and Gifts
A choice of meals, free drinks throughout your flight and a fantastic free amenity kit. Forget all those jokes about airline food - ours is absolutely delicious. We've got a choice of three main meals for you, including a veggie option, and don't forget that drinks are free throughout your flight, not just at meal times. Your free amenity kit is full of great things including postcards, eyeshades, earplugs, socks and Virgin Vie lip balm.
 
Premium Economy Cabin
There are few things more likely to cause anxiety than getting to check in to find a big queue. That's why Premium Economy has a queue busting dedicated check in, so it's never a problem. You'll be through faster than you can say 'my usual window seat please'. Once onboard, the separate Premium Economy cabin gives a real sense of space. And it's not just an impression. The seats are bigger and wider than economy seats, with headrests, leg rests and a seat pitch of 38 inches, enabling you to really stretch your toes. Space isn't at a premium - it is in Premium.

Entertainment
With a minimum of eight channels showing the latest cinema releases, and a host of great sports, drama, comedy and arts programming, you're going to be spoilt for choice. And that's the very least you get, on some flights you can enjoy many more channels plus Nintendo and classic PC games. What's more you get your very own seat back screen to make it even more enjoyable.

If you are one of those people that likes to watch your favourite movies over and over again, you'll love our latest in-flight entertainment system. It offers the biggest choice of movies, with video-on-demand so you can pause, play, rewind or fast forward just like at home. We'll be adding more features in the future so watch this space.

If you prefer your entertainment printed, then there's a full range of newspapers available.

Meals
A glass of preflight champagne is just the start, there's an excellent selection of complimentary drinks - soft and alcoholic - available throughout your flight.

And to eat, we've put together a tempting menu with a choice of three different meals and including a vegetarian option.

And with a maximum of 38 passengers in Premium Economy, you're guaranteed prompt and attentive service.
 
Upper Class Cabin
Upper Class Cut Out Check In: If you arrive at Heathrow or Gatwick airport by chauffeur driven car (or limobike), your chauffeur will check you in from the car at our unique Drive Thru Check In* so you can bypass the terminal and head straight for the Clubhouse.

If you make your own way to the airport or arrive by train, rest assured we've got an efficient and friendly dedicated Upper Class Check In area where you can check in your baggage. Express hand baggage check in is also available at a number of airports, as are Fast Track passport and immigration channels.

You might want to ask your chauffeur to pick you up early - because you're going to want to linger in the Clubhouse. We've got world class Clubhouses covering the globe, each with its own unique character. You'll find everything you'd expect, like full business facilities, and a few things you wouldn't expect such as golf driving ranges, Wurlitzer juke boxes, skiing machines and libraries with thousands of titles.

At London Heathrow and Gatwick Airport, you'll also find the Virgin Touch Health and Beauty Salons offering a tempting array of treatments from a haircut to a full back massage.
 
Dine Before You Fly
Our Clubhouse menus have been designed to compliment the onboard menu. For example, if you're flying over night you can choose to have your main meal in the Clubhouse, and maybe a light snack onboard so you can sleep as much as possible. Whether you fly often or occasionally, nothing should seem routine. That's why in Upper Class there are no set meal times and no restricted options. Your freedom to eat what you like, when you like, continues.
 
Cabin
Forget gloomy grey plastic and shiny 'walnut' veneer, we've rewritten the onboard rule book. With fresh modern colours, sumptuous fabrics and sleek styling, our cabin offers a unique traveling environment.

The mood is enhanced by our adjustable lighting system. A warm glow creates an intimate restaurant;a subtle low blue eases you to sleep, while a simulated dawn wakes you up gradually.

Our Upper Class seat lets you work, rest and play. Upright for dining or working, relaxed for watching TV or - ultimately - fast asleep your seat gently glides through countless settings, with up to 6 feet of sleeping space to stretch out in. Being onboard has never been more comfortable.

Exploring your seat's entertainment system is a pleasure in itself. Our personal screens offer award winning programming featuring the latest movies, sports, comedy, drama, music and kids channels.

Our Sleeper Service is available on all night flights and includes full-size pillows, duvets and fleece blankets. We'll even give you a cosy sleep suit to change into, so your clothes won't get creased.

As a minimum you'll have eight different TV channels. We've got a great range of movies, comedy, sport, drama and kids' programmes to choose from, not to mention channels playing every type of music.

On many flights there are even more channels to chose from plus Nintendo and PC games on many of our routes and Sky Map, which uses flight deck technology to show you exactly where you are in the world at any time. And don't forget your free ice cream during your movie.
