Our seats have changed!

[joolz1910]

I went to have a look at 'Mangage my Booking' with Virgin and they have allocated us 32 C, D, E, F and G. This is on the VS075. There is one aisle seat and the first row of 4 behind the galley. We requested bulkhead seats - is that what we have got?

Any thoughts on these seats?

They are bulkhead seats

They are right at the front of Economy so you should be off fairly quickly too

Personally I wouldn't take any notice what they give you until you get to boarding gate.From the time we chose our seats online to twilight checking we had 2 lots of different seats then when we got to the boarding gate they changed our seats again.
Hope you have better luck than us.

As Elise says they are the bulkhead seats on the new Virgin planes - we were in the row behind coming back yesterday, even though we had chosen row 45 on Virgins 'manage my booking' page.

My sister was allocated two of those seats on our flight out - she had her baby on her knee and DD3, with hubby seated across the aisle - and in the other two seats were a couple with twins sitting on their knees. On our return yesterday there was a family with a young child of about 18 months too in those seats, so as GGG says I wouldn't take too much notice of your seats as they are always subject to change

Thanks. We only requested 2 bulkhead seats because of DD's special needs. I will wait and see if they change.

Where were you sat? I remember originally you were meant to be sat behind us but then like you say, our seats changed a couple of times before we actually got our boarding cards! X

We had requested seats at the back near the loos - I was OK with those seats. I phoned and the Virgin Special Assistance lady told me things could stil change but that I was likely to have these bulkhead seats. I will wait and see.

Ah okay... our flight had been showing an old style one until we got our boarding cards at bag drop, so you should be okay, especially as you have special assistance!

Fair enough. We were so lucky we managed to get seats in the bubble! X
