'Dream Suite' Indeed: All About Virgin Atlantic's Updated Upper Class

Nice design aesthetic throughout the cabin - ultra-modern, the seat itself looks like a 3rd (or 4th?) generation version of the herringbone.

Apparently it's already in operation on A330s operating from the UK.

Nice, grown-up revision, less drab grey and more interest. Still don't like the layout and the fact it looks like a coffin.

It certainly has a coffin look about it...
Great for singles, not so great if your with others and you actually want to talk to them at any point in time...

There are no seat belts on the seats at the bar? Are there different regulations in the UK, because I thought the seats on the QF A380 in the lounge section required seat belts.

The TV arm is very cool, very intuitive, but of course I wonder how much pulling and pushing it can take before it breaks.

IIRCC, no seating at the bar if the seatbelt sign is on - they explicitly announce people need to leave the bar and return to seats when the sign comes on.

Overhead locker space looks totally insufficient - from what I can see there is no storage down the centre? Also don't like the fact that you basically have to look at everyone when you walk down the aisle (or when you're seated you have to look at everyone walking down the aisle!)

The 'flat' beds also look to have a strange curve, but that could just be how the video was shot.

I like it. Looks even better than the original.

Would love to give it a go!

I'd be surprised if there wasn't a middle locker row, but I might be wrong. Certainly hard to see it. Checked a flight I have LHR-MIA in November and it's still the old version so I'll have my fingers crossed. It looks good. I have found the old layout fine however especially in sleep mode.
