Virgin Atlantic have ordered the A350 (the big version) to replace their 747-400's on the sun/beach routes

The 747's were supposed to have gone by now but have been retained due to the
787 RR engine problems - along with some A340-600's reactivated from storage/scrapman
plus 4 ex LTU A330-200's were obtained this year, and are being refurbed with new seats etc

I am not sure if VAA still have an order to roll over the current A330 fleet for new 330Neo's ?
The A380 order from 2000 was eventually cancelled

Puzzlingly BA also have an order for A350's despite being a 777 and a 787 customer
