best seating on virgin economy

[rebekah.g]

Hi I have had a few suggestions on best places to sit on the virgin planes and advised not to seat at the back of the planes due to the engines underneath, and you can hear the noise, and due to the smelly toilets. can anyone else please give me their suggestions. One person who has helped me a great deal has suggested quite a lot on all queries I have had, and we are glad we did as we would of make a bad mistake. Any other suggestions off any others we would appreciate.

thanks rebekah

Hi Rebekah
We always try to get bulkhead seats, as its nice to have no one in front, especially with our 4 year old. There also tends to be a bit more legroon

We have recently returned and had seats four rows from the back on both legs of our journey. I found these no noisier than any other seats and there was certainly no smell form the toilets. The good thing about these were as there were just me and my son travelling we had no one sitting next to us. Also there is a lot of room to the side of the seat near the window so you can put your feet over there, or leave all your hand luggage there making it easy to access, great if you're a 7 year old boy.

Hi Rebekah

We fly on Virgin regularly and I think the closer you are to the fron the better. I always try to go for row 27, you get served first (sometimes the choices get less the further back you are) but the best thing is that you get off first. [msnwink]

We travelled with Virgin on the very last set of seats, they were two rows of two with a little more legroom and the children wer not bothering anyone with the 58 trips to the toilet !!!!
No smell of toilets either. We have booked these seats again for Christmas.

You could also say try to stick to upper class!!!
We travel frequently to Florida and find Virgin very expensive compared to other airlines. Hate to think how much premium Economy would cost.
