2 adults Manchester November showing 747 on the way out with our bubble seats and A300 return which are supposed to be PE.bubble seats and are now on a row of 3!

The outward seats are now on separate rows! Don’t think it will happen anyway.

Flying 20/11/20/ still saying 747 from Gatwick, but a dummy booking on virgin Atlantic suggests now Heathrow and a A330-300, no idea how seat booking will work, also had V room booked, any thoughts?

Virgin on twitter told numerous people it would be happening in the coming weeks, others were told by the end of the month.

Mine has not updated yet for Sep 19 - Oct 3rd Gla - mco

Hiya we were meant to be flying in November 2020 in the bubble exit row seats at an extra cost of £236. I logged into our booking a week ago and found our flight (MAN - MCO) has already been moved to an A330 and they have already reassigned us new seats - right at the back of the plane by the loo!. Been told to contact them 14 days before travel to get my refund - that’s almost 6 months away! First time travelling with Virgin and have to say I’m not impressed.

I've got two flights booked with Virgin from MAN - 29/09/20 still showing 747 but my February flights are now saying A330

Flighrs booked for November, LHR-MCO A330, booked seats no issues

December flights where we had both legs booked in the bubble, and now moved right to the back of the A330, by the toilets. I see at least two others in this thread who have been moved from seats booked in the bubble to lousy seats at the back of the A330. There may be a pattern in the way seats from the 747 are mapping across.

Anything after 25th Oct will definitely be changed. Anything before (my flight included) seems to be anyone's guess. I've been advised yes changing to LHR, cancelled LGW hotel/parking, then no still flying from Gatwick, rebooked everything. Now they've just told.me an announcement will be made next week.

So frustrating!

We fly October 3rd and still all showing as LGW. We cancelled our hotel and parking and re booked for LHR so hope they change things soon so as am not scrambling around at the last minute if we need new LGW stuff.
If you do a KAYAK search for VA at LGW it comes up with nothing , so personally think everything will be LHR but flights before the winter schedule will only be sorted out for people once they are sure they are flying again ..
