Posted: 04 Aug 2005, 12:55I'm sure the rear cabin has to be nice with just nine seats!!!!:D
What are the PE seats like? Are they new or old?[?]

I thought for a second then - why is Upper Class at the back of the plane?
Feel a bit silly now. [:I]

So do you think all 343s will get V PORT?
I hope so as I am scheduled for one of the new UCS 343s in November

Really [?] I though Odyssey and the existing seats were staying put. Great news though if V:port and new seats are been fitted to all the A343 A/C.

Posted: 04 Aug 2005, 16:33I spoke with Virgin about booking the VS22 for this fall and they said it was an Airbus with Vport...so I assume that it is going to be on the new A343...very nice.
Posted: 04 Aug 2005, 16:35Now that's good!!!!!:D
No more sitting in PE on the VS023 wishing I was on the VS007!;)
They couldn't fit an upper deck could they?:D;)[:p]

Sorry to doubt you, but are you sure it has V:Port?
Posted: 04 Aug 2005, 21:57The aircraft still has Oydessy, it has not got V-port!!!!!
legroom in Economy has increased slightly and Old Premium seat!

Thanks for the clarification - even if it not the news we wanted!
Suprised they still have the old PE seats though. Perhaps VS are holding back due to the rumoured launch of new PE seats soon?...
Posted: 04 Aug 2005, 22:35Didnt think they would give it v:port as they didnt give the lgw 744's it when they were refitted.
Shame though.
Out of curiosity, who makes the v:port system.

, hopes shattered [:(] ... Off to bang head against very hard object, repeatedly. [B)]
Posted: 05 Aug 2005, 03:24IFE aside I actually prefer the older PE seating!
Posted: 05 Aug 2005, 05:04But it has V-Port in UC right?
Posted: 05 Aug 2005, 08:42I rather doubt it -- planes only have a single IFE throughout.

Posted: 05 Aug 2005, 08:43I guess that the staff brief that VS has sent out to crew is wrong then. Thats where I got my info from.
Posted: 05 Aug 2005, 09:33As BC says there wouldn't be room to fit two separate IFEs - have you seen the space the take behind the bar with all the streaming units?
Posted: 05 Aug 2005, 10:15Ah well - you win some, you lose some...[:(]

Me too - find it much more comfortable than the newer style ones.
