It’s an amazing experience, I hope everyone can experience upper class, I mainly save on booking an economy classic seat because I’m a Virgin Atlantic silver member & Virgin Atlantic credit card holder plus air miles, I then bid for an upgrade, if I win and pay for the upgrade it can sometimes work out the same price as a normal seat
@@MacBlogs Craig's now got a companion voucher and we've saved 150k virgin points so hoping next September we can get some fancy seats 😁 We come back premiem so it'll be nice to experience that in September but we'd already booked next may so will have to wait till next September. Fingers crossed.
@@nikimottthat’s amazing! That’s a mammoth effort saving points, they all count and making the use out of points/air miles has its benefits, your going to have an awesome time 😁
Lol it was nuts! Must say that Karmel service/communication was first class, phoned and whatsapp message, then called me to direct me where to collect amongst the chaos, great service and price
Just a quickie mate, did you book the flight alone or was it a package ? I am looking into using my Virgin companion voucher or bidding for an upgrade and it looks like its available on flights only ? Cheers.
@@carbslayer this trip I booked flight & hotel as package through virgin (as it worked out cheaper), then logged onto the booking through the manage booking on their website to log bid. It has its moments at times (some times says bidding for upgrade is not available on this flight), possibly better phoning? I checked daily lol 😆 if they deem it a popular time to fly they may not offer bidding, as they know they will make more from straight upgrades 😬
Amazing experience, cabin crew on virgin have always been first class (in all seats), I like that they are professional but also informal getting to know each other
Lol very lucky, and grateful to experience, wish everyone can experience upper class! If you message me on Instagram did be happy to tell you, and some other tips that will save on flight seats
@@BDart-y7z I don’t think so, when I look at the hotel policies it says no parking, but I suppose you could check if you can pay for two weeks for parking in that multi storey, but I’m not too sure
Loved this! Curious to know how much this cost considering the lounge inclusive here is specially for Virgin etc if it's too eye-watering to post publicly I'm just an Instagram DM away! Thanks for sharing!
Incredible experience, upper class at Heathrow is just out of this world with the private entrance, security, clubhouse, etc! I’ll DM you on Instagram price and a few other tips for saving seat prices

Do you know if the hotel you stayed in before you flew from the uk used that car park you walked through to leave your car for two weeks ?
