Yes, yes and yes.

To be honest, there's no "letting" that comes into it - YOU control your seat, and can change it as often as you like. (Just press the button ;)) - Although the crew will certainly do it for you if you ask, no problem.

Your duvets and pillows are stored behind the seat back, ready for use.

Ask if they have some PJs on board, for all the money I spend on Armani and Versace, my Virgin PJ tops get noticed more, even Ben wears em from GMTV.

Love Virgin or what

You'd be lucky - they tend not to give the sleep suits out on day flights. The aircraft will have the suits onboard (they carry them for the night/return flights), but there aren't that many so they tend not to give them out in the daytime. Always worth asking though!

Umm... I've never had an issue with this - always been given when asked, no problem.

Ditto - just ask, and as if by magic Mr Ben's new outfit was there.

Sleep suits are avaliable on all UCS day flights on request only.

They are not the inbound ones, so dont be afraid to ask.


Not sure where Bostonbrit gets his info from????

On ex London day flights, just ask nicely for the PJs. You do not have to sleep as they are comfortable to travel in. Flew on the 6pm flight to JFK arriving at 9 pm so I would regard this as a day flight. About 8 people asked and got PJs and we all changed into them before the plane took off. Not everyone slept (much anyway).

On none VS UCS flights, I tend to travel in shorts these days except of course on SQ F. They do hand out PJs here and for night services even offer tuck in service! :D

Wish the crew on our LGW-mco had known this as I was told they dont carry them
