[Jags..class]

Just booked Florida with Virgin, first time i've ever flew with these. What the food like? or am i better taking my own food on.

Have flown with them a few times with work, so always long haul and always business class. Best airline I use for work.

i fly with them everytime i go the states, and its a good airline, they have movies and games to play all the way, seats are ok. and the food and snacks (which are free) are fine.

Flew with them twice to Vegas, they're pretty good, not the best airline I've flew with but nowhere near the worst. Seats are ok, movie selection is decent (but you can't select when they start they're just rolling), and the food was ok (for plane food). The staff were all very nice but they did run out of beers flying out!!

yep ,very good ,much better than BA, staff more attentive,jumbo newer, food better,plenty of choice for onboard entertainment, try and sit towards front of plane as immigration in the USA is a pain

flew to new york with them not so long ago. Can't fault anything about them. Then again I'm used to Ryanair and Easyjet to Spain so who am i to judge!!

They're the best airline I've ever flown with. Went to Barbados with them. Nice food, comfy seats, friendly staff.

i paid the premium to fly premium economy and i didn't think it was worth the extra. Pretty much the best airline IMO.

One bit of advice i would give (apologies if you've been to florida before) is take very little clothes and loads of spending money. The clothes are sooooooooo much cheaper in the states. Timberlands, Nike the whole works. Loads of discount stores literally round the corner from International drive (assuming your staying here).

Have a great time.

It's been a while since I flew with them but a good airline. Premiun economy seats are good and were well worth the money for long haul, we went to LA from Heathrow so extra leg room was nice. Food ok by airline standards and staff are nice as already mentioned. Play safe and take a flask and sarnies.

Have a great holiday (assumption)

Nope, i'm staying at the Old Key West, disney land resort, hopefully i can get a taxi to a shopping mall.

Have stayed at Old Key West a couple of times<very nice> and close to Downtown Disney and the Broadwalk,it's a few years since I was there but you could get a small boat or Disney bus to these places.. Enjoy

go to the premium outlet mall nearest to wet n wild for clobber. i couldnt believe how cheap the lacoste shop was. ralph lauren was more expensive.

My housemate's Dad works for Virgin, so he flies them all the time for cheap. I'll ask him for the lowdown when I see him

I flew to New York with Air India.

Cheap.

You could tell.
