Hi Matt,

You parents luck is out on this occasion unfortunately. G-VOGE is operating tonights CPT-LHR which means no new Y or W seating. I'm sure they will enjoy their trip regardless....:D

The aircraft is on stand in CPT for approx 12 hours. This is far from ideal for VS but purely unavoidable given the lack of available slots at LHR....:D

G-VOGE has got the new Premium seats.

When the aircraft is on the ground all day in Johannesburg from time to time it is put through the washer or a deep clean is carried out. I'm not sure if this happens in Cape Town as well.
