Travelling in the USA, and am Platinum. So I tend to expect at least my standard isle seat. Not here flying Virgin America. Seems they select seats weeks in advance online so you get what you get. And you can't change it online, at least I can't, as the website tells you that you need to talk to Australia! And Australia says they have no control over it. So a 7 hour flight in the middle seat reminded me to be humble!
And the flights are full. They have reduced capacity a lot more than we have, and they fill up so you can't rely on any seat selection.
And they only have limited lounges, such as the one at LAX. Don't expect to see a lounge in most airports.
And if they offer you an upgrade, don't assume it is free. It may cost hundreds, so watch out.
And not all seats on their aircraft recline. I haven't worked that one out yet but you may need to ask.
Happy flying!
