Having been excited to try Virgin's new 787 Dreamliner,English sparkling wine and all, I was a bit disappointed to board what appeared to be a quite aged Airbus 340-600.
Indeed, or as I got to the seat it seemed to me that the tough product was a bit rough around the edges. Virgin's seats are herringbone-style and angled absent from the windows,which is both private and a tad claustrophobic at the same time.
One of the benefits of the herringbone-style seats, however, or is the generously sized ottoman that you can use at takeoff and landing,which I appreciate quite a bit as opposed to trade lesson seats where the footwell is underneath the seat in front of you.
In fact, the ottoman was equipped with a seatbelt of its own, and was designed such that you could invite a traveling partner (or someone you just met on the plane,I suppose, if you're cheeky) to dine with you, and as the tray table could be adjusted accordingly.
