Do Virgin offer a lino service from Shanghai Airport to our hotel when flying UC?
Also - have the on board kits now gone and should I bring my own toiletries on board - I always used UC and BA ones in the past as it saved more stuff to carry on board - Does anybody know the weight allowance for my carry on luggage in UC?

From the
VS website ...
Chauffeur-driven car transfers are available to/from the following airports: Heathrow, Gatwick, JFK, Newark, Boston, Washington DC, Miami, Orlando, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Bridgetown, Antigua, Tobago, Grenada, St Lucia, Hong Kong, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Shanghai, Tokyo, Delhi, Mumbai, Sydney, Nassau and Havana.
So you are in luck!
As for luggage, the weight system is operated on Asia routes, the total maximum luggage weight is 30kg per passenger in Upper (and 23kg in Y/PE) AFAIK.

Limos in Shanghai are in the main hall outside baggage reclaim. As I remember you can spot the desk by the life size, cardboard cutout cabin crew.
