TRIP REPORT | Virgin America - A321neo - New York (JFK) to Los Angeles (LAX) | First Class
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 апр 2018
- Hey guys, welcome to another trip report. A couple of weeks ago, I flew on Virgin America, probably for the last time. They have always been one of my favorite airlines, and it is sad to see them becoming history.
Anyways, the terminal at JFK is aging quickly and is too small to handle the number of airlines it does. It was impossible to find an open seat. However, the seat on the plane was amazing. It is the best domestic seat after JetBlue Mint. The meal was also amazing, and the crew was very funny and nice!
Hope you enjoy!

Aircraft: Airbus A321-253N (N925VA)
Seat: 2A (First Class)

Man I’m so gonna miss their livery, damn you Alaska airlines.
But Alaska has way better service then Virgin America but Alaska’s livery is kind of bad
@@mannnnnn9226 100% Correct
Imo virgin america has better service
People who fly Alaska Airlines are real people
As Alaska has already started implementing some of those changes, the quality of the service has seen a precipitous decline. It really is too bad that JetBlue was outbid by Alaska in the battle to take over Virgin. As always, another great video. Thanks so much for sharing...
This safety video never gets old 😉 I'm so gonna miss it when Virgin America disappears 😢
I miss it too!
So sad that Alaska is going to remove those seats😭
Virgin America is my favorite airline for inner American flights.
I agree!
@@QFSAviation me too!
Yea, it’s a bummer
5:45 Every major airline should do their safety video like Virgin America!
United tries Lol
American sort of tried also with their safety video that removed cheering in 2018 but they don’t do a safety video on most flights because they got rid of the IFE
Really amazing! So sad VX is gone. I had the chance to make a trip report out of them before they went down
Thanks! Yeah it’s very sad...
I’m guessing bankrupt?
@@Pkmn_mlp_sonic_fnaf_fan Merger with Alaska
@@BREEZY.67 ah
Just awesome vid! What a shame Virgin America won't stay in service for longer. 😕
Thanks! Yeah I agree.
Who’s buying them. I forgot
Alaska Airlines :(
Oswaldo Öberg it’s gone. ALASKA BABY!
Oswaldo Öberg can we get a rip in the chat for virgin america
Fantastic video! I'm really gonna miss Virgin America. That safety video is never going to get old! Beautifully put together my friend, really enjoyed watching it! Liked! :)
Virgin has very comfortable seats and the IFE is quite nice. I really like the safety video. It’s like everyone has miniature living rooms. The American Airlines safety video is however my second favorite. I’d take 7 inch PTVs over tablet holders any day. A PTV and a comfortable is something you cannot go wrong with.
I miss the Virgin America days!
I’ve never seen safety instructions like that. Really cool!! 👍👍 Even though it’s not a wide body, that A321 is a pretty big airplane.
I really liked what you did with the safety video! Props on another great video! Going to miss VX but I hope Alaskan will continue the great traditions! Great job!
Thanks a lot! Took a lot of work. Missed out on monetization because of it.

I love how you put what’s coming up in the all of your videos. Also, amazing video.
Thanks! I decided to do it around a month ago. It lets the viewer know what’s coming.
RIP. I've only been on these neos in their old config twice. Loved the F seat.
Hey buddy great video you deserve a A+ I love that you catch every moment it's so awesome I'm a flight attendant based in NY for a major airline
Thanks a lot!
nice flight, always cool landing at night with ribbons of light. CFM International’s LEAP-1A engines are quite to
Very nice!
Thanks!
A321neo is such a nice plane!!!!
Agreed!
Great video. I really like VA's safety video hits the perfect point with the cool animations. Hopefully soon in the future you can fly to Arizona again and maybe try a flight to my home city? KTUS
Thanks QFS !!!
Listen to the Leap engine sound (or we called mini GE90), it so great!!!
Lol I know right! Great engine indeed 👍
Cool man loved it liked ;-)
Thanks!
Great trip report liked and subscribed!
Thanks :)
Virgin America is the best, it sucks that Alaskan airlines killed such a good brand.
Aaron O'Brien Alaska airlines is dog shit, the whole airline is bland and outdated, Alaskan airlines is an airline straight out of the 90’s. Virgin America was so much better
@@akplanefreak Stop fucking talking, Virgin America is better and full stop.
And they arent killing the brand, geez. All they did was change the liveries (Which are much better now instead of that white for money savings) and change the IFE color from RED to GREEN. I even like the AS 737 seats too.
@@akplanefreak nobody gives a fuck about LGBTLMNOPQRSTUV. Go check your blood sample
The amazing part about this video was the airplane seats just that color is bright and good looking I wish I was on Virgin America
Very cool..

Richard Branson: What?

I've gotten really used to VX's F product over the last two years, mainly between SFO-SEA & SFO-LAS. I must say, it is by far my fav. domestic F product (that I've experienced) and I'm so sad to see it disappearing soon. The legroom itself is crazy comfortable, not to mention the power seats & massage functions. After my flights with VX, all other F products just seem so "blah." Never got to try the 321 either.
Yeah I agree. I’ve flown them a couple of times on JFK-LAS. It’s ashame. Best economy seat out there.
Alaska should bring those seats into all Alaska mainline fleet!! Also, Alaska should do that safety video!! I'll fly Alaska more!!
Ikr! I wish Alaska would take pride in both Alaskan tradition and Virgin America. But it seems they will do neither
Virgin was years ahead of everyone with their in-flight service via the touch screen order when you want.... soooo much better then up and down the aisle!
I miss VX so much. I hate AS even MORE.
The Virgin American Video is just too cute.....And thank you for your beginning music showing the other aircraft landing there are JFK...Yes, some airlines are still flying the 747-400s. That is still the best aircraft to fly those long haul ocean trips...
Yeah I really want to fly on another 747 before they’re gone!
I hear you...
Historic travel , Virgin America is the first air carriers in the world operate A321 neo ,
Yup. I wish more airlines had the NEO though
More airlines have them now. Delta,American,JetBlue, Hawaiian, Frontier etc
Looks really good for a narrowbody! Looks better than Norwegian premium in their 787s by far.
Ikr! It is a bit better
100% better service just watching the first 4-5 minutes compared to UAL's
Thanks Mom!
Those white seats will be missed they look so modern
Dyalla lush 😍
Only 2 rows in Bussiness for a 321 of such a good airline , I've seen Delta's CRJ with 3 rows of Bs.
Too bad Alaska is downgrading to almost the same seats as american's new seats, and more importantly, removing the IFE's! Keep the PTD's, please!
Auto pilot disconnect. Aka calvary charge chime @ 29:00
😀👍
QFS says it’s a winglet, it’s a shark let lol
Did you make your connection?
You should fly Virgin Australia! It’s the same, but, IMO better...I flew them from SYD to LAX and LAX to BNE ...I also flew V America to get to Washington so I can compare it to V Australia’s domestic service...Come to Australia one day! You’ll love it...Airports and staff are much better here I feel.
Lol the A320s engine sounds like a GE90 engine
Those engines are called Pratt And Whitney PW1100G Or CFM International LEAP. not General Electric GE-90
7:14 *"Nice Try :)"*
to bad about the video glich, didn't realize they were a treasured item...NOT to be shared....lol
Yes, we all fly into LAX from the city side...Flying west towards to ocean.. Then when all us leave LAX it is west towards the ocean and then a few right turns over the ocean then back east coast.. Too cute..
Yep!
It would have been better if it was instead VA taking over Alaska
Companhia aérea inovadora vai fazer falta
I flown on one last week on my parents country airline carrier Philippine airlines
That's a really weird sounding super high pitch ding...
Ikr!
Any videos on air Canada
Yep, the next review! I've also done an AC A319 in January
Are you really only 15?
Yeah
QFS Aviation Holy shit man you’re only 2 years older then me and you’re doing what I can only dream..
Engine at 13:44
10:58 Qantas
Yep!
Wow ur using the same music and RUclips for the RUclips live stuff
I thought virgin america was in t4 this looks like terminal 7
In the merger I wish they would’ve kept Virgin America brand instead of Alaska brand
Surprised they only have 2 first class rows. I have no idea what the merger will bring a year or two from now. Allegedly all the Airbus planes will be sold. Also no idea as to the future of entertainment systems after the merger.
ecoRfan they’re getting rid of them and making them into the same cabin layout as Alaska has on the Boeing
Something tells me Delta will be hungrily eyeing those airbus planes
*Todrick Hall intensifies*
WeIp. At Ieast the acquisition brought the Virgin cuIture to AIaska. AIso, at Ieast we stiII have Southwest.
good thing they play that safety video on the ground cuz if it was at altitude id jump out of the freaking plane
I totally agree hahahaha
Need to bring a parachute then, lol!
Is VX already gone?
EEE626FTW yeah :(
It and all the screens it had in their planes are long gone unfortunately and unsurprisingly
is this the same runway the AA pilot hit the taxiway sign? lol
Hahaha possibly
We still have Virgin Mobile!
Yeah hahahah
We still have Virgin Atlantic and Virgin Australia
Look!!!! The earth is curved at 27.00. Lol.

I remembered I threw up on a Virgin America due to motion sickness out of nowhere straight from my nap and they had pink barf bags.🤮
tomato juice makes a comeback haha
Yes it does LMAO
did you make the connection?
Barely! Had to sprint the whole way
peanut bread?
The Sad thing is that Virgin America doesn't exist anymore!
Ye, it’s sad
Alaska Airlines trashed VA.
There's no way to not learn about boarding procedures
Richard Branson sold records...
Yup!
*Virgin* America parked at gate 69A. sorry
A321 Neo is better than a321 in my opinion
a first first class flight
margaret and mom sleep tight
next door neighbors night
I have two criticisms:
-If that livery is really supposed to represent the West Coast well then the West Coast is definitely dull and boring.
-It may be very cool indeed but safety announcements are to be taken seriously for the good of everyone on board, not taken as a joke and a distraction. And most importantly they must be UNDERSTANDABLE.All this singing and autotune means serious lyrics about what to do in case of an emergency go misunderstood or not heard.
After I saw the pilot thingy screw what I said that is now the best airline ever.
Yeah the safety video is a bit too much. And the livery is too bland.
Hahahaha
Alaska had to ruin all that and put their plane af grey seats in...
Alaska airlines should have learned a thing or two from virgin America
Virgin America isn’t so virgin anymore
Yea I guess not
i miss virgin america. alaska is just simply boring.
Please put in runway information
Took off 31L
Alaska has great crew but man they are cheap, taking out the seatback tvs and removing the amazing recline in the first class seats moving us back to 1989 in seat design, just to make more room for seats, it annoys me greatly!!!!
33:00 Look at all those lame ass A321CEOs lol
LMAO agreed
Why are all of your viedos in 1st class start making viedos when your in Economy im bored of the same stuff
Curse Alaska airlines!!!
