- Virgin Atlantic 787 UPPER CLASS REVIEW: • Virgin Atlantic Upper ...
Latest Bonus Offers on Travel Rewards Cards: www.hdjeff.com...
I am reviewing economy class here for the first time! This was a fantastic deal using 10k points and $150 in taxes & fees to fly Virgin Atlantic economy class one way from Boston to London, on board the A330. As much as I would love to always travel in business or first class it is not always realistic for most of our budgets, and I often fly in economy class as well.
I booked this flight last minute as I usually do and chose a seat toward the back with the good fortune of an empty seat next to me. The extra room and wonderful service sure made this experience a lot more enjoyable.
This is the first video in my 2022 Around the World Tour - a series of videos where I'll continue to travel around the world in both business and first class and even on board the Eurostar high speed train!

My favorite part of any flight is the take off. ALWAYS so much fun!
Yes definitely, the start of another great adventure! 🛫
nah bruh thats the scary-est mine is landing
It’s great because thats when you start to feel weightless
Thanks for this vid! I have a flight tomorrow on virgin from London to Mumbai then Hyderabad! - Edit, it was to Delhi then Hyderabad but still helped nontheless -
Awesome, I hope you have a great flight! I just flew Virgin again in May with their new seat and it was amazing, that’s my latest video.
Bro same
@@HDjeff Uhmm, it was actually to Delhi then Mumbai but still educational
Hi Jeff. I haven't been paying attention lately. I didn't know that you moved to flying. I have to catch up. Now real fast, I have to try to make another long distance train ride. Long story short, my train got cancelled on the morning that I was supposed to take my first long distance trip. lol😁. Only me. Well I'll be checking out your other videos. Happy travels.
Hi Melanie! I'm so sorry to hear your train got cancelled, that seems to be happening often lately and it is so frustrating! I hope you are able to re-book soon. Next video will be a train, followed by a few more really great flights, then hopefully another Amtrak adventure if I can sneak away for a few days in the next month or two.
I'm looking forward to my first time using this airline in Oct.23.
I hope you have a great flight, happy travels! ✌️
First time review in economy.. my whole life is economy class 🫢
I usually fly economy too, but domestic flights in the US are not all that exciting for TH-cam. I usually save all my points for the good seats and film those flights.
Incredible video! im going to begin making airline reviews and this video gave me lots of insperation, im also flying this product soon and haven't been able to find reviews so this was really helpful thank you! if you could do you think you could provide me any tips about filming a flight like this?
Thanks so much Dylan! You definitely don’t need to spend a lot of money on gear, you can make a great video even with just your phone to start but be yourself and tell a great story about your flight to draw people in. The first 10 seconds, the thumbnail and the titles are the most important parts of your video. I have gained the most valuable knowledge from Muse Storytelling (they’re on TH-cam) but you should definitely learn some fundamentals of filmmaking and how TH-cam works first. I’ve been making a living with a camera for nearly 15 years but this channel is completely different than anything else I’ve done, so it’s been a fun challenge to make these videos and I’m still learning a lot.
@@HDjeff Thank You so much!
@@HDjeff Hi Jeff i have no idea if you will see this but, you gave me some filmaking tips a while back and i was wondering if you would be able to give me some feedback of the review i did on this product using your help! If you get the chance it would be very appreciated if you commented your thoughts on the video, getting some real feedback from an incredible creator like you would be amazing, thanks for you time and have a good day!
@dylansaviation done, awesome work Dylan! 👏
Great vid, really loved the style and structure of your video. New sub gained
Thanks so much, I really appreciate you following along!✌
I love the taking of to 😊
I wish all widebody planes had the 2 4 2 configuration.
It is a great arrangement, I also love the 767 with 2-3-2.
I will literally be sitting on the same seat on the same plane soon.
That’s awesome, have a great flight! ✈️
EEN LYKE FLEENT! DATS MYE FVORATE MOVI!
😂 it never gets old!
When I check the miles its much more than what you mentioned from MIA to LHR. 50k to 150k
Virgin doesn't fly to Miami, but I see codeshares with KLM and Air France from 12,500 points several dates this month or you can fly Virgin from Orlando also for 12,500 points & $150. I'm searching on virginatlantic.com and if you do a flexible search it'll show which dates are available.
@@HDjeff I saw Virgitn MIA to LHR
Sorry you’re right, it didn’t come up in my search at first.
What is the personal item size/weight. On the website nothing specific. Last time , with nothing specific i was in big trouble with alitalia and turkish airlines
They never weighed it like some other European airlines do, I brought a full size backpack loaded with stuff and a roller bag.
@@HDjeff did they ask you to put it in the sizer (to confirm it's not too big)? right prior to boarding?
Good job,i like the 2-4-2 seating
Thank you!!
thanks
Is this a Britain air comp.? I’m gonna fly from Europe to Florida soon. Great video btw! 😊
Virgin is based in the UK and they do fly to Orlando from London, it’s a fun airline to travel with. Happy travels!
How long was the dark time for sleeping? I'm leaving with the 7 pm one on Wednesday and am curious
It’s not very long, maybe 3 hours because of breakfast service which is worth sleeping through if possible. Perhaps even less on your flight given the late sunset time now, bring an eye mask & earplugs and enjoy your trip!
Did you find your seat had extra leg room? Seat guru says the 61A-C have extra leg room
No, it felt like the typical 31”-32” seat pitch. The advantage with the Airbus vs Boeing is they’re typically about an inch wider in economy so they definitely feel more spacious.
Although I have never really flown with Virgin Atlantic the impression I get of them is that they are a bit less formal than BA and a more relaxed attitude.
But they fly to far fewer destinations in North America than BA, KLM, Lufthansa or Air France.
That’s all very true, happy travels! ✌️
Did you travel with no luggage?
I bring a backpack & roller bag. The roller is carryon sized but I checked it on a few flights on this trip to make the filming easier, not sure if I did on this one.
@@HDjeff Coming from MIA, We may have to get the delight so we can check on since its a 10 day visit
Is this economy or premium economy please? As if this is basic economy and food is included as eell as a screen i have to say virgin is the best uk airline period! 😮
This is regular economy, I booked with miles so I got to select my seat for free. Food is always served in economy on flights across the Atlantic unless it’s a budget carrier. You’ll get a similar meal & IFE on Delta, United & AA as well.
After Seeing your your this vlog i booked my flight to India 🇮🇳
Awesome, I hope you have a great time!
Leaving tomorrow from Indianapolis to JFK TO LONDON. I’m checking out the plane & it’s a 11pm flight🥴
Oh & it’s economy the hubby & I arrive @ 11am
Hope you have a great time, the later the better in my opinion unless you can catch the early morning flight. It is such a quick flight if you took one of the earlier flights you’d get there around 1 or 2am east coast time which is miserable. Happy travels! ✌️
@@HDjeff aww thank you so much !! Looking forward to more of your videos ♥️✌️
Wow, 10K? And I thought MXP>HNL>DFW for 20K Alaska Airlines miles was a good deal :) I need to look into the Flying Club programme.
- Red
Alaska probably doesn’t add a surcharge though, just the tax!
Hmmm...I just flew Virgin Atlantic Economy classic from Los Angeles to London and it was the worst experience of my life. Why on earth have the seats recline in such a titchy space? The move was dreadful. The staff were so embarrassed by the guy in front of me literally trying to flatten his seat into my face by repeatedly heaving himself backwards that they let me sit in the crew seat at the back of the plane. I will not fly Virgin again for a long time. Horrible!!!
I've always had a great experience traveling with Virgin. Better luck next time! ✌️
For Christmas my family offered to purchase an economy seat for any European/Country...
Thinking Sex Tourism might be the way to go since it on them. LOL
😂 that was very kind of them, happy travels!
I’m surprised the wallet was still their
Luckily it fell to the side of me and not behind where someone could’ve swiped it.
I'm actually not looking forward to LHR to LAX over 11 hours in economy 😭
That is a long flight but plenty of movies to watch!
it's weird how flights can be dated by the mask "safety theatre" that was referenced at the start of the taxi
Yes I definitely don’t miss that!
I’m done…… with the guy and the green hair behind you. Lol
😂 😂
