virgin food and drinks

[mrshnn]

do you still get proper knives and forks,what type of meals are they serving and most importantly what beer do they serve aboard

plastic knives and folks

usually rubbish meals (choice of 3 including 1 vegi option)

don't know what beer they serve - I only drank orange juice

Last September it was small cans of Budweiser on a Virgin flight - one of which was out of date!

If you are driving when you land in Orlando do not drink. The authorities are a lot harder on drink drivers in the US then they are in soft old England

Alcohol also increases the risk of DVT on long haul flights.

That's a bit of a worry.

I'll have to have a couple of drinks on my next flight so I don't fret about it too much!

....but they have the tiniest cans of cola you've ever seen! Not even enough to allow a god belch.

I thought the food was great

I had pre-ordered low fat meals (chicken) through the virgin-atlantic web-site (same place as you reserve your seats). Not only did I get a decent meal but as I had pre-ordered I also got served first.

Cutlery was plastic - cant comment on the beer but the wine was a bit dodgy, didn't encourage you to drink much of it.
