Virgin Upper Class BFS-MCO - cash or miles ?

[Jaspercat10]

Wow that’s a great price you must be chuffed enjoy 😉

Looks like a few people have taken advantage of this - our flights now have 9 people in UC in the last 2 days !

What days do Virgin fly to MCO from Belfast? TIA.

All I can say is it’s the only way to fly. Going out you get the service coming home you get the sleep. I have never slept coming home ever and suffered dreadful jet lag. This time I got over 5 hours sleep and no jet lag when I got home.

Mondays probably flight from Glasgow (weekends only) We have been very fortunate to have flown UC from Manchester a few times but would love to hear anyone's experience from Belfast .

If they flew Belfast to MCO in the winter I'd book it in a heartbeat. Flown UC twice from Man, very comfy, large supportive chairs, herringbone layout - in the main it's about the seat and quiet cabin for us. VA is our airline of choice, we're well happy to drive 150 miles from/to MCO to travel in comfort.

Totally agee. Am feeling very smug about this - booked at £1100 now £2580 per person !

Unusually for me as I never seemed to know about these in time but this was my 2nd find - am also going for a week in May having got economy tickets
for £232 each. Can't wait to try UC and surpise the family !

Most get lucky at some point gmul, our luck came in 2015 and 2016. €1.42 to the pound equated to a £850pp fare via LastMinute.ie. Paid using FX fee free Halifax Clarity, pleasantly surprised LM.ie didn't apply a Mastercard surcharge either. 2016, lucky again, VA UC return reward seats at a cost of £424pp taxes and fees. I saw VA fares at €1250 earlier this year that equated to £1130pp due to the € rate. The only problem you may have is returning to a right turn when boarding the aircraft vs the left towards UC/PE.

Have a smashing holiday
