Recently flew LHR/DXB/LHR Upper Class on the A330. Probably the last time that I fly Virgin.

First impression, a claustrophobic cabin with with too many seats crammed in. Cabin crew having try to squeeze by between the seats while trying to serve drinks/meals.

Boarding music very loud, causing great difficulty making a last pre-departure telephone call. Why travel business class if you cannot carry on doing business?

As for the seats, who designed them, Fly-Lo's Omar Baba? One arm rest left side, which could not be used as it was too low, nothing on my right side.

What a let down after flying the 744 for many years.

Any one know if anything is being done about the seating configuration and the appalling seats? If not I'll be calling BA for the next trip.
