 |
| We have had very good experience flying Virgin Atlantic in UpperClass, and have been looking for an opportunity to try Virgin America's service within United States. |
|
 |
| Virgin America's gate counter at the LAX Airport. Today, I am just taking a short flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco following a long day of meeting and attending the Aircraft Interior Show in Long Beach. |
|
 |
| The First Class cabin on the entire Virgin America Airbus fleet is outfitted in white leather. The red pillow and blanket provide an attractive contrast. |
|
 |
| The front galley is separated by a transparent blue screen. The flight attendant is preparing pre-departure drink for the first class passengers. |
|
 |
| There are two rows of First Class seats on this Airbus A319, with another blue transparent divider separating Main-Cabin-Select, which is the Premium Economy class section with 38-inch legroom. |
|
 |
| With a very generous 55-inch legroom for First Class seats, Virgin America offers as much room as International Business Class seats on many airlines just a few years ago. |
|
|
|
|
 |
| Underneath the folding tray table is this metal bar, I had a hard time trying to figure out what purpose does it serve? Do you know the answser to this mystery? Scroll down a bit for the answer. |
|
 |
| Since we are on a short flight today, we were only offered a simple snack box in First Class. |
|
 |
| Tasty olives, Goat cheese, and Salad; unfortunately I had skipped lunch and the servings are a little small. |
|
 |
| The flight attendant dimmed the galley lighting after snack service so that we can catch a quick nap before arriving in San Francisco |
|
 |
| Virgin America uses only Airbus narrowbodies in its fleet. Today's flight is operated by an Airbus A319, the slightly larger A320 are the other type in the fleet. |
|
|
|
|
 |
| Mystery revealed: the metal bar under the tray table is a support for books, a thoughtful design that other airlines probably should copy. Even though this is a short flight, I came away with a very good impression of Virgin America, chic cabin design, roomy and comfortable seats in First Class, and pleasant flight attendants made for a nice flight. I look forward to trying Virgin America's longer transcon service. |
