I do not know if anyone else has noticed,but on a recent trip to Dubai I see VA are no longer selling the potent Virgin vodka anymore and only offer Smirnoff now, as the airline was the only retailer i guess the brand has gone, I still have an old glass bottle version (empty!)before the change to plastic, guess e bay is looming....

They were doing Grey Goose at one point, I quite like that one [:D] Be a shame to see that go for plain old Smirnoff.

On our flight to SFO recently, My duty free magazine had Virgin vodka and my wifes had Smirnoff, However, returning flight from LAS both had Smirnoff so it would seem Virgin vodka may have gone forever...

That brings back memories... Virgin Vodka was responsible for my heaviest hangover EVER, and actually made me feel ill at the thought of drinking for about 9 months afterwards. I'm fine now ;)

Yep Virgin Vodka has definately gone - it has been substituted with Smirnoff in the Retail Therapy magazines

When I bought it, it was allegedly vodka but after sitting in a cupboard for a long time, who knows what's happened to it [:D]

I know not everybody will share my opinion, but I hope the cola follows the Vodka into the realms of history.
