Flew Virgin Atlantic upper class Los Angles to London on the A350 and it was phenomenal.

I recently flew Virgin Atlantic’s Upper Class on their A350-1000 from Los Angeles to London Heathrow and it was phenomenal. From the moment I checked in at Delta One’s exclusive area to sipping champagne in the Delta lounge plus access to Virgin’s Clubhouse at TBIT, it was pure class.

The suite itself felt private and super comfortable, complete with a lie-flat bed, plush bedding, amenity kit, and a massive screen. The mood lighting and quiet cabin vibe really made it feel special. Meals were standout spiced shrimp, teriyaki salmon, and a rich flourless chocolate cake that’s now my new gold standard. Even got a surprise cheese and port wine offering mid-flight.

WiFi was fast, IFE was stacked, and the crew was friendly without being overbearing. Landed in London early, with a smooth arrival and short queues at immigration.
