Virgin Upper class seats belts

[Jets fan]

Hi

As I am always nudging people at work in Virgin's direction (Miles more friends!), I have a colleague who is on the large size who just about fits in the BA First seat belt and he asked me about the length of the Virgin one as he's considering switching airlines. does anybody the answer? would greatly appreciate it as he gets so embarrased when the belts do not fit.

Many thanks

The seat lap belt in Upper Class is different to normal lap belts as it has an "airbag" inside the belt.
This belt is bigger than the normal belt, but for both larger people and for children, extensions and reduction units are readily available.
he will have no problem, plus the UC seat width is wider than the NNCW seat
