Thread: Recent Flight to Orlando on 6th June with Virgin

  1. #1

    Recent Flight to Orlando on 6th June with Virgin

    One of the best journeys to Florida Yet on virgin's Island Lady,

    The plane left on time from Manchester, we sat in club orlando upstairs (treat to ourselves), Mark was lucky to have nobody sit next to him, and the club orlando section was not full downstairs, anyway we made good time in the air and arrived in Orlando 30mins ahead of schedule.

    Being amongst the first people off the plane we arrived into Immigration, with no queue and went direct through with no problems, onto customs where we had all our bags screened, with the officials asking have we brought anything into the country such as food, Jo started explaining about a marmalade jar for toast, coffee for drinking, some chocolate, and some sweets from manchester airport (in the end the customs women said OK, no more please!!!), then she was more bothered about had we been on a farm or not..., after proceeding we then went to put our bags on the moving baggage way to the terminal and then through screening with no delays onto the skyway monorail.

    We arrived at the terminal building with a quick pit (toilet, no restroom) stop to then pick our luggage up, with loads of people waiting for there luggage we thought how are we going to get our luggage...but found a space and seven bags were on the way round and five of them being ours and two from the people in front of us in the previouus custom screening..., everyone was looking at us and we felt quite embarrased but never mind we thought onto dollar rental...Leaving the airport the time the flight should have landed...

    Excellent we thought, we are here for three weeks now...

    We had a great flight with American Airlines. Good service, endless flow of free soft drinks and landed 1 hour early in Boston and 20 minute early to Orlando
    Never heard of club Orlando[?]What is that exactly? and if you don't mind saying roughly how much does it cost[msneek]

    Club Orlando is Manchesters version of First class- around £1300 each.
    Enjoy your 3 weeks of sun and fun

    Premium Economy is not usually upstairs, it used to be before Club Orlando from Manchester .You are sometimes in the seats in front of Cattle class.
