Virgin's The Falcon

Hi all - finally doing the single digit dance and thoughts are firmly on that plane a week this sunday from Gatwick!
Im sure i read in here somewhere that it is possible to find out somehow if our Virgin flight will be The Falcon or not but can't find the post now.
I'm fairly sure we won't be as the day before is the departure of the week long special Virgin Star Wars trip and I'd expect that to have The Falcon!
Any ideas?
Thanks

There's no way of knowing which plane will do which route, they can be changed at any time, and they often do.

The Falcon is plane registration G-VLIP, if you have a look on a site such as flightradar you will see it's not always on an Orlando flight. It might also do Gatwick to Orlando, but then fly back to Manchester, so there's no guarantees your flight will have it.

We flew on the Falcon, completely wasted on us I'm afraid. Grandson is desperate to get it in October.
Anyone know which "lady" changed?

We flew home on the falcon on New Year’s Day but it was at the most awkward gate at MCO and no matter where we stood we couldn’t get a photo of the side ☹️

I got a photo in the less than a minute we saw it for! I would have been more impressed if the upstairs doors hadn't been broken.

It was parked up next to us when we landed at MCO today. The kids were impressed.
