Premium. Economy..I find this seat a very good seat .... is not too close to the toilets and not too far back so you get served last. By far one of the most comfortable seats .... 100% more comfy than Economy ... liked the footrest . Enough legroom even when the seat in front of you is reclined

Great service, very friendly attentive staff. Food was good with a reasonable selection.
Movie & TV selection was ok, not as good as Emirates. Flat bed with a comfy mattress.
This seat was very quiet and the overall noise in the cabin was minimal.
I liked the fact that there was not a trolley being pushed up & down the aisle.

Very disappointed considering the uplift payment for Business Class. Uncomfortable and cramped. Crazy, had to have stewardess to convert from seat to lie flat bed and back again. Feet knocked by anybody passing when lying out flat. Very limited storage. Electronic connections difficult to access. Food was mediocre at best. Very poor in comparison to Delta A330 on outbound flight.

Seat	21D
From	Heathrow
To	Johannesburg - Oliver Reginald Tambo International (JNB)

Seated behind the snack bar wall with lots of leg room which are reseved for disabled and only bookable at checkin if no disabled require them. But foot rest is brought to you after take off and monitor stowed away until take off or on landing so you can't view it at those times.

Virgins 787 business class should be avoided at all costs, nice that all seats face the isle but extremely cramped, no way for one to look out window, minimal seat reclining, no seat storage unless you’re a contortionist. If you’re over 240lbs don’t do it. Great service though. There are much better options out there

Despite being the last row of seats in the Premium Economy Cabin, the wider seats still reclined to enable a most relaxing posture for the long haul flight. Easy access to toilets. Will recommend Virgin - our first time experience but impressed v previously used Airlines(for both business and leisure). Cabin crew excellent.

The food kept coming throughout the flight. I was well accommodated as a vegetarian. That being said, the sandwich pasties had no flavor in both the veggie and meat versions.
It was a very long flight, the seat botttom was not very comfortable by the end.
All in all I give Virgin Atlantic 4 Stars.

The seat was comfortable for an economy seat. The recline position of the seat was adequate. The food was typically poor quality airline food. The service provided by the staff was excellent. The entertainment sound system was awful and should be improved to satisfy the passengers.

Very comfortable seating. Loads of room to store the usual personal bits and pieces. Liked the new entertainment system. Very easy to operate. Food choice excellent as was the food itself. Got a very good night's sleep on the flat bed
