WARNING! VS27 flight time change

[Obi Wan Kenobi]

Any of you flying Virgin VS27 Gatwick to Orlando, please go to the VA web site and check your booking.

The departure time has changed to 11:15 from 10:45

I "Think" the changes are from the change of the clocks in October, but the flight times pages have not been updated.

Might also be worth checking the VS 15 times as well

Thanks Obi. I think it was the 11:15 flight I took back in Oct 05.

 

[Claire L]

I kow flights between Oct 28th and Nov 3rd have different timings due to the US clocks going back a week after ours, but can't see any other changes

Yes the flight times web pages have not yet been updated (its still shwoing our December flight as 10:45)
You have to go into "manage my bookings" and call up your flight details to get it to inform you of the change.

When we flew out on 28 April they changed the flight time from 11:15 to 10:45 a little while before and VH didn't tell us (but the DIS did - probably Obi!)
We are booked on the 27 on 3/10 and it's 10:45 according to our e-ticket, and according to our booking on va.com

They have def changed, as was unable to view my booking on VS website, had to call up and get them to refresh the booking.

2) 1/2 hour extra in bed
3) Now lands after BA's flight......1/2 hour extra queue at immigration.

I think it looks like end of October after the clock change, but honestly not sure at the moment.

Can you get into the web site but not into your booking?
If so, ring the Flying Club. They will reinstate your access after telling you of any changes

 

[mickg7dyd]

Hi,
Yeah thanks Obi got it reset and all is ok. Told the lady on the phone I wasn't happy though as I had lost 30 mins. of my holiday...
She said blame BAA as it is them who changed the timing.
