Virgin Atlantic Business Class

Virgin Atlantic started life back in 1984, with just one plane and a lot of ambition. Managing Director Richard Branson financed further aircraft by borrowing from his Record Label and grew the business very quickly. Virgin Atlantic is now valued at over £1bn and is half owned by the Virgin Group, with Singapore Airlines owning 49% of the company shares. Virgin Atlantic’s first scheduled flight was from Gatwick to Newark and has since added many new destinations.

Flying with Virgin Atlantic Business Class

Virgin Atlantic Business Class customers get the unique privilege of flying Upper Class, for Business Class rates! Its honestly impossible to think of an airline that offers a comparable service to its business travelers. All have excellent services, but this is truly a First Class service, at way reduced costs. The truly exceptional service starts right at your front door. A concierge limo service will greet you where you are, carry your luggage to the car, and get you to your flight. At the airport the concierge leaves to pick up the next valuable customer, while the dedicated check in crew speeds you through the check in process, with no effort required on your part. Totally seamless travel.

Not only do you get Upper Class service at a business rate, but you can collect air miles while doing it! Virgin Atlantic Business Class is best known for their “Mine is bigger than yours!” slogan that gets placed on many of their aircraft. The Virgin Atlantic Upper Class amenities feature a bed that is a fully flat, 80″ long, with above average width. Virgin is a leader again with their herring boned design, where the seat actually flips to accommodate any comfort items you would like to put in bed with you. For those who are curious about what “herring bone” means; it refers to how the seat actually looks when viewed inside Virgin Atlantic’s Upper Class section. Your space will have a 10.4″ TV screen, computer docking station and spacious table/desk, 5-star menus, bar, along with movies, games, music, etc.
