Ive been watching a few airline review channels. I got to say out of the three I've watched you're the best current. One of the other guys was so entitled and his reviews were mainly complaining about how the stewardess weren't beckoning at his every call. He would've trashed the entire review and said it was terrible if the thought of him making his own bed was there. You paid attention and did it yourself and didnt let it affect your video at all.
The seats are definitely a huge upgrade from the miserable coffin like seats facing the aisle. I avoided Virgin because of them. That "lounge" looks like wasted space on the aircraft.
The height of the seating in the ‘lounge’ is a poor design concept meant to bring you more in line with the crew, whereas in reality means your legs are dangling off the floor. Not quite sure which genius signed this off ✅ 🤷🏻♂️
@@danvalentine2997 It seems they wanted something close to bar stools but that could have seatbelts. The lounges are good ideas for those 12+ hrs flights where you want to encourage passengers to walk to prevent leg blood clots plus having a space for passengers that don't want to sleep and want to chat a bit, but they need more comfortable chairs
I personally like the isle facing seats now as they have switched the direction of them so they are facing towards the windows but I do agree when they were like that they were not to nice but now they have added privacy doors which is a great touch 👍
Wow, this shows how good you are at your job, when you can be included in the press. I thought this was the Trek Trendy channel until you said about it, so naturally I subscribed to this also. As usual, I enjoyed the content, you are so honest about it. Love watching your choice of menus, to see how good or not so good the food is. Keep up the great work and take care. Catch you on your next video.
Mate, your channel and content is brilliant. You always come from a mutual aspect and literally say it how it is. I'm intrigued how you managed to get this type of job/content creation - very impressive.
@@Trek2 you're welcome. I've only just realised this is another channel of yours, so I've subscribed as I thought it was your other Trek Trendy channel. 😅 keep up the great work, buddy.
This is a great video, thank you for sharing your views on this flight and brand. I have a deep respect for Sir Richard Branson and his business sense.
My family and I flew from Gatwick to Tampa and it was amazing we love going back to Florida, and it was amazing considering we were meant to go two years ago
Loving the channel. Seemingly the right amount of positivity without pandering (looking at you Sam). I’m assuming you flew into Australia for the Indian Pacific train trip? Keen to see those flights reviewed.
My family and I just took a round trip flight from Tampa to Heathrow on the A330-900 in economy plus seats and it was the best fight we've ever taken! Those Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 engines are SO QUITE and smooth!!! And the flight crew was amazing! Syncing the very large entertainment screen to my Airpods via Bluetooth was a breeze! We will defiantly book again!! Way to go Virgin Atlantic!!!! BTW, they have some exclusive podcasts to listen too as well. I love the bit about Abby Road Studio!!
The new A330-900's certainly do look like really good aircraft - I'd expect this London - Tampa route to be quite popular specially during peak tourist season!
Tampa is the airport with the highest potential for European airline companies among all the US. I am italian and I used to spend my vacations in Tampa bay area, I remember fully booked Lufthansa flight from TPA-FRA during summer.
If this was your first time to Tampa, welcome to the home of the Tampa Bay Rays, Lightning and Bucs! I see Richard wasn’t afraid to wear a Bucs jersey either haha
I don't like flying so I prefer your train videos but I wanted to compliment you on your slick filming/camerawork and editing - You put professionals to shame.
Great video as always. I’m flying to London from LA next month and my original flight was a 787-7 with the old herringbone style seats. I switch to a more expensive itinerary at no additional cost that is an A350 with the nicer and new seats. Can’t wait, it’s my first business class flight.
I just booked my flight from NY to Heathrow and then afterwards I found out its their 787-9 planes they are so outdated, is there anyway i can change it into their new planes ?
Be interested to hear your view on BA F verses this new VS upper on this style of upper.. VS have really pushed the boat out with this new seat, however, the LOFT looks a total waste of time, unlike the QATAR business equivalent bar area. Welcome to the new channel Trek. You must have your reasons but you, Noel and AQUAHOLIC (ok I like super yachts) are my top 3 You Tubers....
Love your vids! I have noticed that the latest videos have been all over-edited and voice over style format. I much prefer the older ones of just you speaking live as things occur. These newer ones feel like a “short”story version. Too clean, and polished and not as interesting to me. Sorry if I offend, but honest feedback. 😅
Off topic, but with your love of NASA, have you considered wearing an Omega First Watch on the Moon Speedmaster Professional? PS I love this new channel!! 👊🏻🙌🏻
Thank you. The intention is to split out some of the more focused aviation content. I havent reviewed Business Class on the main channel in close to a year, so this will be the home of Business Class and behind the scenes content (i've filmed a video on some 777 cargo planes too)
I see.. it’s the same design that United used for the Polaris cabin. Although on UA the odd number rows are the more private window seats, looks like on Virgin it’s the the even rows.. looks like virgin stepped it up.
Well DL does own a majority of them so probably helped negotiate for them. And agreed classier. Delta one just feels a bit cheap and plastic. Not top notch quality materials. That was a cost saving choice.
You mean his "don't bother with Delta" vlog where he named SC in the title for clout??? 🤣 Yep. Ooh look at me, i got over 100k views...yes with false accusations... Dirty dirty dirty.
@@bmereborn58 With respect, there's more rational here than you may think. Business reviews don't tend to perform as well when mixed with First / train reviews. The separation provides a space for them to grow independently, and most importantly what's best for the algorithm. This is a business decision from experience and not as you put it "silly"

kinda sounds like nonstop dan lmaooooo
I have tried it and it is so cool. I did it on May 13 first class and I did it what you did and you’re the best UA-camr ever.
You’re the best UA-camr ever I love your videos. I’ve tried to upper class. It was so cool. There was so much legroom.
😊
The seats are definitely a huge upgrade from the miserable coffin like seats facing the aisle. I avoided Virgin because of them. That "lounge" looks like wasted space on the aircraft.
Normally that would be a galley at most, but never seats since there are doors there

omg the scenary is spectacular…the clouds🎉
Whenever I depart from Heathrow, it's just sick, how everything runs so seamlessly... its an amazing airport of the best ever
My favorite aviation channel. Love from Sri lanka ♥️
Why a second channel if you don't mind me asking? ☺️ Great review again like always

@@alexshawe1990 me too mate, been following Will for ages but didnt know this channel was here
This is great, more trek trendy content! Love your videos man.
This is a great video, thank you for sharing your views on this flight and brand. I have a deep respect for Sir Richard Branson and his business sense.
Beautiful video. The plane is gorgeous. Looks like a great flight. I can always dream. ❤✈️✈️✈️✈️
one of my fav channels from canada
Fantastic! More Trek content for me to live vicariously through, another new sub here 😊
Thanks so much :)
What differentiates this channel from your original channel? Love the content all the same as a big Aviation buff :D
Congrats on all your success, Will!
I love the mirror; "Don't you look lovely"👋
New socks, new white sweat top, and are you sporting a new haircut? The new channel suits you sir. Can't have too many for me. Keep at it Will.
Very good content! Excited for the second channel!
The upper class wing looks amazing
My family and I flew from Gatwick to Tampa and it was amazing we love going back to Florida, and it was amazing considering we were meant to go two years ago
So excited to see another channel!!!❤
I’m so excited for this second channel!
Flying this in a couple weeks! Looking forward to it even more so after your video.
Loving the channel. Seemingly the right amount of positivity without pandering (looking at you Sam). I’m assuming you flew into Australia for the Indian Pacific train trip? Keen to see those flights reviewed.
1:37 my excitement when I see a new Trek video uploaded
The NASA socks, rock!!! I gotta get me a pair

I am italian and I used to spend my vacations in Tampa bay area, I remember fully booked Lufthansa flight from TPA-FRA during summer.
been in that private wing and flew upper class so nice, even better when i had a bar on the plane
If this was your first time to Tampa, welcome to the home of the Tampa Bay Rays, Lightning and Bucs! I see Richard wasn’t afraid to wear a Bucs jersey either haha
The Goated flight reviewer strikes again
Didn't know you had a second channel but im pleasantly surprised😄
Finally you came to my neck of the woods.
Great to see you in Tampa, welcome!
I don't like flying so I prefer your train videos but I wanted to compliment you on your slick filming/camerawork and editing - You put professionals to shame.
New sub on this second page, big fan of your first page and can't wait to watch now on both ☺️ Cat 🇦🇺
Only thing I didn’t like about this video was it was less than ten mins. Great video Will!!!!🔥🔥🔥
Great product and video!!!! I love a second channel and more videos!! WoooHoooo!
I love this new channel it’s got potential for growth ❤
Feel like this channel deserves a new bingo card!
Now you're talking
A great trip in a very lovely suite!
Yes aviation video 🎉
Nice 😊

There is no 787 7 I think you mean the 9
I just booked my flight from NY to Heathrow and then afterwards I found out its their 787-9 planes they are so outdated, is there anyway i can change it into their new planes ?
Great video, looking to fly soon... A330 Neo or A350 Upper Class?
I love the A330neo! so much more modern than the 787!
Yourtraveltv was in this suite too
Love those Timberlands. Which model are those?
be careful with so much food I loved this video greetings from Puerto 🇵🇷
New channel, how exciting 🎉
your meal 👀yummy and indeed
love nasa soxs
I live in tampa! The last shot was over the University!!
Great video! How come you changed the channel name?
I LOVE your Timbs.
Love those NASA socks! 👍👍👍
Will, just found your new channel. Looking forward to to the content you place here.
I REALLY was hoping you got the chicken parfait, wanted to see that one
Be interested to hear your view on BA F verses this new VS upper on this style of upper.. VS have really pushed the boat out with this new seat, however, the LOFT looks a total waste of time, unlike the QATAR business equivalent bar area.
Welcome to the new channel Trek. You must have your reasons but you, Noel and AQUAHOLIC (ok I like super yachts) are my top 3 You Tubers....
Lol, they sang Sweet home Alabama? Did they follow it up with some John Denver afterwards?
I would have found that annoying.
Personally Im a little superstitious so I'd be a little freaked out by a cover from a band that whose members died in a plane crash.
I reckon you gotta try luxury coaches next😂🤷
I love the virgin lounges. Good memories of some wonderful trips. However, last time I flew virgin the toilets were absolutely filthy.
I live in Tampa it would have been amazing to meet you have you ever thought about doing the ingredients during a layover??
Nice one
I'm not sure I would have been so gracious to wake up to a concert playing in the cabin.
I CAN'T LOVE MORE YOUR ACCOUNT!
what is included on the flight? Lots of nice stuff on the menus in the lounge and onboard but how much of it is included in the price?
All food and drinks are complimentary, even in economy. The only extra charge is for wifi
@@Potsie95 a month or so after that comment I ended up doing the lhr to Tampa upper class and loved it so much I did it again in November lol
Hey Trek, are you gonna be in Tampa for a bit? I'm quite nearby, would love to grab a drink if you're still in town!
Great video! For some reason I find myself preferring the A330neo over Borge the A350 and 787. Surprised it isn’t selling better.
Nice, 2nd channel!
Love your vids! I have noticed that the latest videos have been all over-edited and voice over style format. I much prefer the older ones of just you speaking live as things occur. These newer ones feel like a “short”story version. Too clean, and polished and not as interesting to me. Sorry if I offend, but honest feedback. 😅
No offence taken, I edit videos to optimise performance and this is what I’ve found works best for the overall audience, new and old
Off topic, but with your love of NASA, have you considered wearing an Omega First Watch on the Moon Speedmaster Professional? PS I love this new channel!! 👊🏻🙌🏻
What’s infamous bout the salt and pepper shakers?
So, newbie here... I'm guessing the lounge is included in the price of your ticket. Right?
The day your allowed to Vape on the plane is the day i'll book the flight!!🤣
I’m so jealous 😅😊
looks great, but unfortunately i don't fly virgin anymore x
why were the chairs tipped over on the roof terrace?😂
Love itt!!
WOW !!…live 🎼
Why the new second channel? And excellent video!
💸💸💸💰💰💰

Keep these reviews coming Will ! The highlight of my week ! Love the content ! ❤️
I love your adventures when you record I never go business or first class bye
I thought the Boston flights were the first commercial?
This was the inaugural Tampa flight
Great video but avoid the pool table in the clubhouse - it's a shocker!!
Looking at it more closely it reminds me of a classier version of the Delta One suites
Well DL does own a majority of them so probably helped negotiate for them. And agreed classier. Delta one just feels a bit cheap and plastic. Not top notch quality materials. That was a cost saving choice.
@@johniii8147 That’s true I forgot that Virgin and Delta are partners. But yeah Virgin’s looks a lot classier and cleaner looking than Delta’s.
You mean his "don't bother with Delta" vlog where he named SC in the title for clout??? 🤣 Yep. Ooh look at me, i got over 100k views...yes with false accusations... Dirty dirty dirty.
If the route launched , really recommend try the other Taiwan new airlines Starlux Airlines by former EVA Air boss, LA to TPE A350-900
When going through security, how did they check your covid vaccine? Was it via app ?
Didn't know that one can take the Virgin sleepsuits home? Is this correct?
Why a second channel with the same type of content?
For filming what are the best upper class seats to book
Big Question: Have you ever had an emergency landing or turbulence during a flight (Doesn't have to be a recorded flight)
Goodness if that flight is 10 hours I dread to think how long it’s gonna be when I go to LAX 😅
Omg. Your main isn’t beef?! 😮
Just one meal during the 10h flight?
Why is this not on the main channel ?
It's a Business Class review, and the main features largely First Class content
@@bmereborn58 How so?
@@bmereborn58 With respect, there's more rational here than you may think. Business reviews don't tend to perform as well when mixed with First / train reviews. The separation provides a space for them to grow independently, and most importantly what's best for the algorithm. This is a business decision from experience and not as you put it "silly"
Just subscribed and I bet you have a lot of really nice jammies 😊
Is this a new channel?
Sure is :)
Was there a second meal on this 10 hour flight?
