According to this, Virgin are asking pax on LHR-HKG flights to bring torches so they can read as VS are to keep the cabin lights permantley dimmed for the flight duration.

I have had to check a couple of times the date on the article as I thought it was an April fools at first, but seems not to be.

My money is still on the April Fool idea. ;)

Unless, of course, pax bring wind up or solar powered, carbon neutral torches.:D
