Content overview: “Virgin Atlantic Upper Class Review: 10-Hour Flight from LA to London, Seat Drawbacks and A”. After spending 10 hours in Virgin Atlantic's Upper Class cabin on a flight from Los Angeles to London, one traveler found the experience mostly won them over despite some seat design drawbacks. The airline's business class offers a unique layout that has long divided opinion, with seats arranged in a herringbone pattern that prioritizes privacy and direct aisle access but can feel narrow and lacks traditional forward-facing comfort.
The reviewer notes that while the seat isn't their favorite in the sky, the overall package—including service, food, and amenities—made the journey pleasant enough to book again. Virgin Atlantic, a key player in transatlantic travel, competes with British Airways and American carriers on this lucrative route, and its Upper Class product is central to that rivalry.
