Virgin Atlantic launches upper class seat sale

Virgin Atlantic, one of the world’s leading long-haul airlines, today announced that it has an amazing seat sale on until the 24 June for Upper Class tickets to selected destinations until December this year. The fares, from as little as £1099, are available for travel up to and including the 31 December to destinations such as New York, Boston, Chicago, Washington DC, Miami, San Francisco & Los Angeles in the US and Worldwide destinations such as Delhi, Mumbai, Shanghai, Dubai, Lagos & Nairobi.

All fares are inclusive of pre-paid passenger taxes, fees, charges and surcharges (subject to change). Terms and conditions apply.

Paul Dickinson, Sales & Marketing Director, Virgin Atlantic, said:

"Now that the Upper Class passenger journey is better than ever with our new Upper Class Wing at Heathrow, passengers are getting through to our award winning Clubhouse quicker than ever giving them time to relax before their flight, so these Upper Class sale fares on offer for travel throughout the year make the opportunity to fly Upper Class too good to turn down!”

The new Upper Class Wing enables Virgin Atlantic’s business passengers to speed through the terminal quicker than ever before, moving from limo to lounge in under 10 minutes. It is like no other business or first-class check-in. Upper Class passengers travelling to the airport in a limo, who will already have supplied check-in details to their driver, are taken in their limos up a curved ramp onto a 22-metre wide arrival area.

After being welcomed by a Virgin Atlantic host, check-in formalities are completed before the passengers walk through a new hotel-style lobby area and through the dedicated security channel for use exclusively by Virgin Atlantic customers. After passing through this unique fast-track, they emerge in the heart of the terminal building and only a short walk from the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse.

Upper Class passengers and Flying Club Gold members making their own way to the airport can check-in at the Upper Class Reception, in Zone A of the main terminal, before taking a priority lift straight to the dedicated security channel.
