We are flying home on 17th from Orlando and I was unable to pre book my seat, when I phoned Virgin I was told it was because of the clocks going forward in US. The system couldn't cope with it so it had to be done manually.

Whenever there are any schedule changes to flights even if it by as little as a minute, your reservation cannot be brought up on line. Once you have called VA they will make manual changes and then it should be seen again.

Mizzy the timing of your flight can be for many reasons, the clocks changing could be one, but there are quite a few changes being made at the moment due to aircraft being re-allocated and re-furbished. It's often just to allow the aircraft to be in the right place at the right time.

My flight to MIA in November had the same issues. We return 70 minutes later than originally planed, this is due to landing slots at LHR not being available at an earlier time and nothing to do with VA.
