In my most honest and sincere view, non of them. I would not give the bearded smirking self seeking publisist the satisfaction that he had my money for any of his enterprises. His airline was responsible for not one but THREE of my worst flights EVER! Virgin is NOT the sort of entrprise I wish to support!

Come on SLEEPING PAX, you've got to give us more than that!

WOT, Virgin cracking, had the pleasure of flying them recently to the states, right from check in they were brill. The crew on the a/c were cracking as well as nice looking and very helpful to a wind up I was playing ona family member. On the way back they upgraded me for no reason at all. Cheers Virgin in particular the crew that took me out there, made a long boring flight in a metal tube livable.

If it's a 744, the front row of premium, upstairs. Loads of legroom, nice and quiet.

How the hell can anyone afford a first class long haul flight !! I had a look on American Airlines website, they were looking for GBP 3000 LHR - JFK, BA wanted GBP 1600 LHR - SYD ( Both return and all in first class )

[The Guvnor]

£1600 return LHR-SYD sounds like a bloody good deal to me! Sure you don't mean £16,000??

Try checking out the round the world fares - when I lived in South Africa, I used a combination of BA and SQ and for a First class ticket (including Concorde from LHR-JFK at an extra US$1,000) it came to US$5,000 or so.

Good deal or what!!!

The best seat?

The upgrade, surely?

I can't believe this thread has gone this long without someone saying...'The two seats up in the cockpit! (giggle giggle)'..

...guess that shows you how rare it is to get those pest tech crew types in here?!

You wouldn't by any chance, work for BA would you? NIGEL? Oh and by the way, Oxford Air Training Students have the answers to all the exams! They go B A C A A B A C A A B A C A A!!!!!!!

I'll second TSP's comments on Virgin. I have found their reputation undeserved. Undoubtedly competent, but nothing to rave about. I too have had some poor experiences on Virgin (upper class), one of which was due to ineffective ground staffing and a couple of others where the cabin crew were unhelpful and the service was no better than that on a charter flight.

The best seat is the one that gets you there?

[only1leftmate!]

Purely personal opinion but,

the best seat I ever found belonged to a stewardess!
