Virgin row 63 & 64 - what is the big gap?

Believe me my family have to drag me on a plane, I’m already having palpitations about it all, I’ve even had stewardesses holding my hand to calm me down but I love those seats and would never have sat in them again if I felt turbulence ( well more than normal). If I remember I’ll get the kids to take some photos of the seats and report about the flight

Hi , i am also a nervous flyer and actually not being beside a stranger and not feeling so claustrophobic at the back helps me 😀

Our favourite seats by a mile. I like being near the toilets, like the extra room too. In the summer we had small children on front of us in the second row of 2 seats and the mum made a bed on the floor for one of them in the space and he got a great nap.
Ive never noticed more turbulence either tbh.

Thank you, that's a good point. The dilemma I have is I can't really afford it certaintly not at the moment but I've been thinking that if I don't book my options are 3 then one (DH) over aisle or 4 in middle. I feel a bit penned in in middle and if kids are next to each other my son will just wind my daughter up, we are best one adult to one child so that's why I was thinking we'd sit in a 2 in front and 2 behind. But if we don't book the 2s soon they will certainly go. Stuff to think about🤔

Thank you! That's good to know there was no more turbulence and the extra room is worth it too. Thank you

The middle row is the worst for me. Penned in is an understatement, thats why I really dont want the bulkhead seats. I also prefer to split my older boys into 2 rows of two 😉

Yes that's how I felt. haha so it doesn't get any easier as they get older?!

Hi all me again, is the toilet quite far back as looking at the map it looks like it is? Mentioned it to hubby and he's concerned that people will be queuing for loo right by us and holding into seats all the way through the flight and the smell! I showed him seat map and they look far back though so I'm thinking they're not right behind those seats?

Those two back seats of two are my favourites including any PE seat. Me and DD always chose them. You have to accept you’ll be last off though and be prepared to tell people leaning on the back of your seat to not be so rude! Bubble for us next trip as DH won’t sit at the back. Personally I can’t stand the bubble. I’m claustrophobic and it makes me feel horrible.
