Which Virgin Plane will I be on?

[Julia Ann]

how do i find out which virgin plane i will be on? I understand the aircrafts have "names" and i'd like to find out ours. Also NEED to know whether or not for definate the aircraft has the screens in the seats and games etc. Will be pretty miffed if they haven't cos this is the main reason for flying with Virgin.

We are flying from Manchester on 24 august.

Not sure how to find out what exact plane you'll fly on but I think that all the Virgin fleet have seat back TVs. As far as I know not all the inflight entertainment systems on Virgin planes have games , but you will have up to a dozen movie and TV channels to choose from.

In general Virgin (and BA for that matter) use their oldest planes with the least well equipped cabins on the Orlando 'bucket & spade' routes.

i'm pretty sure you'll not be able to know the actual name of the plane as it could change at the last minute

but you'll definitely have seat back screens

reading what other people have said on here, the planes that fly from manchester have games as well (unlike the planes from gatwick)

Last time I flew to Orlando from Manchester there were no games but we had seat back tv's.

Having said that we were upgraded to Premium
