Twilight Check-in

[Madabouttigger]

Can anyone tell me if Virgin do a Twilight Check-in at Manchester Airport?
Has anyone stayed at any of the airport hotels and which ones can you recommend? We are hoping to stay over before the flight and leave the car at the hotel for the 2 weeks we are in Orlando. Any advice, as always, is greatly appreciated.:)
Thanks
Diane.

I have just checked the Virgin site for you and it does not mention Twilight Check in BUT you can check in online upto 24hrs before! So you can do it before leaving home.

This is off their website with regards to DIY Check in

Q What flights are available for online check in?
A Online check in is available for the majority of Virgin Atlantic operated flights. The only routes not currently allowing check in are all flights to/from Port Harcourt, Lagos and Hong Kong, flights from the Caribbean to London, and flights from Delhi to London. Excluded flight numbers include VS030, VS032, VS034, VS036, VS038, VS056?, VS200, VS201, VS651, VS652, and VS300.

Q What do you do once you arrive at the airport?
A On arrival at the airport, please go to the DIY Check In Bag Drop desk to collect your boarding documents and check your bags in. This must be completed at least 60 minutes prior to the scheduled departure of your flight.

Hope this helps

Hi Diane. As far as your second point is concerned, we have stayed a couple of times at the Radisson SAS hotel. It's an extremely nice hotel that is actually linked to the airport. Although it isn't the cheapest, it is by far the most convenient and you actually leave your car and then pick it back up from the hotel, rather than having to get buses to long-term car parks (the hotel will have the car driven away to a long-term car park and bought back ready for your return).
