Re: Virgin Business Class Lottery - now 0 for 2. Pay for Business, get Premium Econom
i took 2 business class flights today with VA (BNE-MEL-BNE)
I fly extremely regularly and this was my first "business" flights ive taken this year (back to work this week). (3-5 J class tickets a week mostly)
I've been with VA flying them now for about 7 years, and seen all the transitions.
I completely understand the pain people have had, i was talking with the crew on board they said there's been alot of pain as this thread shows.
However as a very very regular business flyer, i'd like to put a positive note on their changes.
I think these two flights today were the best i've taken with VA in at least the last 6 months.
They've really hit the nail on the head for people whom fly business class, and i am betting they are going to attract alot of people when they get these little issues sorted out. The food today was good, service was good, their new procedures are good and it made the front of the cabin feel alot more quiet and easier.. For a big day i had, this was great. It's what i expect when flying on a J and today they delivered.
I know they want to fill the front cabin, i am betting if they keep up what they are doing they are going to achieve it very quickly.
So to my crew today, and VA in general (i know there is still pain out there), thanks for listening and keep up the changes, personally other then maybe a better sav blanc wine, there wasn't much i could have recommended to change!
