Virgin Atlantic Upper Class LHR Lounge Advert

what ones your sister

[ephemeralprotagonist]

I am a frequent traveller in BA Club World. I've never flown Virgin Upper Class before, but I notice this airline also serves most of the routes I travel.

Can anyone advise whether the service in Upper Class is better than Club World?

[flyboyz83]

It's not... Give it a go and see, had the misfortune of flying VS upper from SYD-HKG in Feb, didn't like the A340 for one, bar was tiny, crew miserable and upper class a rip off! BA Club World is far better but as I say, give Virgin a go and see for yourself!

[kovi17]

To be honest Ive heard nothing but the best about Virgin Atlantics service... except for now with flyboyz83. Not saying hes wrong but we are all bound to have a bad flight from time to time :)

[simonallardice]

Actually, for the price, Virgin Upper Class is leagues ahead of BA Club World! I've done both and the two just don't compare well...with Virgin you'll have a seat with clear division between your neighbour, the lounges are much better (only Virgin lounges, not codeshares)...remember, Virgin Upper Class is a J class business class product which means it's a 'premium business class product'.

[qwertdr]

No. It is a BUSINESS CLASS product, simple. Not a 'premium' one.

J is the standard fare code for standard Business class.

Virgin is nothing special, believe me.

[simonallardice]

You're of course entitled to your opinion, but I fly virgin every month and hold them in particularly high regard...BA on the other hand lost my business a long time ago!

Toodle pip!

[qwertdr]

I never meant that VS is bad, I'm just saying that Upper Class is Business Class and nothing more.

[markhillary]

Virgin Upper Class is much better than BA Club World. The seats are bigger, the flat bed is far better, the division between seats is better and you always have direct aisle access, plus the lounges are very good...

Is he the Guy from the Mummy?

[mysticmagic4760]

Yes, John Hannah was in all three "Mummy" films.

[OnThe54]

This is the best Virgin Atlantic ad EVER!

Richard Branson rocks!

[mysticmagic4760]

Great commercial. John Hannah's the best!

[Siouxaj]

does anyone have any idea what wrist watch he wear in this advert, its really nice

[redverskyle]

Annoying, Elitiest & SMUG. But then thats exactly the type of Demographic they are advertising to.John Hannah,an actor who's personality is as flat and bland as most Airline Faux bubbly, trys to act cool and suave, but comes across like a spoilt lottery winner on his first trip abroad.

And why does he look like he's slept in a national express waiting room for 3 days?

[Diegojetsetter1988]

You are annoying. And I can tell you've never been on Virgin Upper Class. If you think this is Elitiest and smug, then you don't know what flying like a true jetsetter is... Go fly Ryanair where you can rub shoulders with your fellow chavs and the hoi polloi of London

[flissbechutch]

awesome ad!!

[macnos]

Most people won't be able to afford that.

[Joffyh]

The focus of this advert is to advertise the launch of the new private "terminal" at LHR and how it saves you so much time at the airport. I personally really like it.

[shyvas18]

It doesn't do the brand Virgin justice.Far too expensive for a poor result.

[1flyingmoose]

I work for Virgin Atlantic, and I have to say I'm not overly impressed with the advert. It doesn't represent the brand that well. I think the "Beauty Sleep" commercial that was used to launch the Upper Class Suite was far better, had a brilliant soundtrack too.

[vviv]

well as a punter i think its a great stylish commercial plus the sound is hip

[1flyingmoose]

Yes it's a nice, stylish commerical, clean, decent soundtrack. But doesn't represent the established Virgin brand well enough. The Limo to Lounge service is great, and the lounge is truly incredible. I think for £6m, the ad could have been far more impressive.

[kimnorland]

I believe it reflect the brand perfect and give aspiration to try the Club House etc.

Hope you are happy working at VA on all other points.
