Virgin Seat Requests

[Fantasia Sam]

How do I do this again? Can anyone suggest good seats in PE - is there a plan that I can view on line?

Thanks for your help

Hi Sam,


The PE configuration depends on which aircraft Virginn are using.It can be on the lower deck at the front or on the aircraft that is usually used for the Orlando route the 747-400,PE is upstairs.Thre are about 16 rows of two on each side.There really isn't a seat you wouldn't want to sit in!

Perhaps the row that is an exit and so has even more leg room?

Thanks Karen

What are the perks of flying PE again - tell me again how good it is

Sam - only comment I would make about seating upstairs is if you really want to recline your seat, don't get rows 74 - we did (although we were glad cos it meant no-one kicking the back of my seat as normal ). With this row, the chairs don't recline as much as others.

Row 75 is the best - exit row - but these can only be booked at check-in (we changed to row 75 for Darryl on our return journey because we got lucky and got to Miami airport real early - it's always worth a try when you check-in though).

Perks - board the plan whenever you want; use the lounge at Gatwick (we didn't cos Katie's not old enough); champagne/OJ or water once you're up in PE; because there's less people it's less noisy (I thought both in terms of people noise and airplane noise); food comes round real quick and you tend to get what you ask for ; get off the plane first (they were holding back economy when we left and nothing beats coming down those stairs while everyone else is being made to wait ; your luggage comes off first with Upper Class and at Orlando you have your own special carousel . In the cabin you have more room; a locker by the window seat which is invaluable for stashing handbag/newspapers/magazines/bottles of water; for those of us more womanly in proportion, the seats are wider (although when you've got a fat bum like me they all feel the same ).

ENJOY - we did
