Am in Virgin Clubhouse at Gatwick

I'm on the 1.00 Virgin flight from Gatwick to MCO, flying UC. I'm currently in the Virgin Clubhouse and it's lovely, so peaceful and relaxing and I feel totally spoilt 😀 I had a full English breakfast washed down with a glass of champagne! Currently on second glass of champagne and eating yummy choc chip cookies. So to anyone flying UC with Virgin to MCO you have to come in here, it's an oasis in the madness of main part of the airport!

Definitely try a Virgin Redhead from the cocktail menu!

But I fully agree, the LGW Clubhouse is a haven of peace compared to the main terminal departures area. The LGW Clubhouse often gets rated as being nicer than LHR as the vast majority of people in it are going on holiday, so everyone is happy & in a good mood (in the main). Can't wait for April when the MAN Clubhouse opens!

Funnily enough I've just ordered The Lively Spritz!

Yes, I've just been chatting to a couple who are also going to WDW 😀 We complimented each other on our choices of holiday destination!

We fly from Manchester and I have been told that they are building a new clubhouse in T2 so fingers crossed its ready for our flight.

Enjoy, it sounds lovely!

Oooh, so VA have finally approved a Manchester Clubhouse? This would be a major bonus as, for us, the Escape Lounge wasn't our cuppa and after one visit we've never been in since.

Does anyone have an official article on this please as all I'm returning is the Escape Lounge blurb from VA's own site and other pages.
