We are booked to go to Dubai in a few weeks - booked with Virgin Holidays.
We are flying BMI from Manchester to LHR (Economy) and VS from LHR to Dubai (PE). As we are going with VH we have also booked the Clubhouse [:D]
I am planning to do online check in for both BMI and VS flights, but when we fist check in at Manchester can anyone tell me if we will be able to through check in, or will we have to reclaim bags at LHR and recheck in there for Dubai flight.
If we can though check, as we are PE will our bags be marked priority for collection.
We would also like to see if we could secure row 18 (bulkhead) seats - when would be the best time to do this? At Manchester checkin, at VS desk at LHR or in the clubhouse.
Not done a multi stop flight before with different airlines so would like an idea what to do?
BTW, as we are flying on a Sat, will the clubhouse likely be busy (can't pre-book treatments) and does anyone have a copy of the new menu - still winter on the website.
Thanks
