Many thanks for all your replys. Sincere and cheeky
The double bed option with the partition removed is a trial on 3 or 4 LHR aircraft not on the caribbean routes out of Gatwick.
Price will be travel industry price so it doesn't sting so bad!
I guess the real question is do I go for BA club flat beds where I know the partition drops or go for the 'better'? product with Virgin but run the risk that it's difficult to hold a concersation with the person sat next to you unless they get up and sit on your ottoman foot stool!
