Virgin Americas is the best plane I have ever flew in. - General

:siren:[u]I'd like to point out I'm not adviertising I'm just telling of my expierence with Virgin Americas and suggesting everyone else use it[/u]:siren: So I was taking a plane with my family to San Diego (to go visit some old family friends). We got to the flight deck and after waiting a while like you always have to do we were finally called. As I walked in I noticed they were handing out headphones (earbuds, and those other normal ones), crappy but awesome. I went on the plane expecting to have a horrible time and probably get a baby behind me and the guy in front of me snoring his ass off. I was wrong, it was the best flight experience I've ever had. So I've been meaning to making this thread about Virgin Americas for a while now, ever since my flight to San Diego (Its been saved in a notepad document on my desktop for almost a year now:dance:). This has to be the most entertaining flight experience I have ever had, mostly because of one thing: [IMG]http://i29.tinypic.com/2cxatzs.png[/IMG] This is red your personal touch screen entertainment placed in front of every chair. So what does it do? Well pretty much everything. You can order movies, tv shows, food and drinks, listen to music for free, chat with others on the plane, watch tv, and even play video games. You think first class is the only one who gets everything? No, not at all. [IMG]http://i39.tinypic.com/21eb85d.jpg[/IMG] When you sit down a cartoon is showed on the screen about saftey and that kinda shit. It then gives you the option to do whatever the hell you want with this screen. As I said above you can listen to free music, order food and shit, and watch tv and tv shows(which you have to pay for sadly:frown:). [b]tl;dr:[/b] If your gonna fly take virgin Americas so you can order food,watch tv,listen to music and play doom on your plane yes they have doom. Oh and just a little story for my facepunch brothers: Me,my brother and my mom were sitting in the same row of course. We waited like five minutes and then the safety video came on. Here it is: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyygn8HFTCo[/media] So we were watching the video and the part came on that said "The safety exits are located in the front and in the rear" ".....in the rear" me Me and brother were the only ones laughing for minutes on end. [u]Questions:[/u] [b]Is it expensive?:[/b]No, actually its not. If you don't beleive me my family didn't know what Virgin Americas was and just went for the cheapest deal.

Looks sexy

I flew Virgin America about two weeks after it started, and I have always said it is the best airline in the world. Service is fantastic, food is delicious, the Red system is amazing, the seats are comfortable as hell, and its incredibly cheap. Richard Branson is my hero.

Not to be confused with "Slut Airlines".

Man whoever made Virgin Airlines is a demi-god.

Do they have napkins for you to take

Holy fuck I so want to jizz on that plane.

Damn that looks fucking cool. Forget the destination, the ride is where it's at.

[QUOTE=derekjeterfan;16608514]Do they have napkins for you to take[/QUOTE] A+ post,

I'll stick with Westjet. Maybe they will get games eventually.

post if you thought it said America's virgins are the best.

[QUOTE=RichyZ;16608494]too bad its fucking expensive to fly on it.[/QUOTE] Nice, you obviously have no idea about VA's prices. $50 from SFO to all of their western airports, $70 from Seattle to any western airport they have, and $120 from LAX or SFO to DC or New York. Those are killer deals, especially with the service you get.

Flew from NYC back to Europe with Continental. Had about the same thing which made the flight incredibly pleasant. Watched a ton of good movies, TV-shows, played some games (pool against other people on the plane) it was pretty great. Too bad it only took 9 hours. :C

I'm fixing the transparent red tv. Too big my thread must be ultra sexy

Upon reading the title, I thought that during the course of your flight, the airline would de-virginize you. I am disappointed. I didn't realize it was virgin, the [b]TELEPHONE[/b] company's, airline.

[QUOTE=Luuper;16608580][Img]http://images.askmen.com/galleries/men/richard-branson/pictures/richard-branson-picture-1.jpg[/Img] demigod[/QUOTE] I love that crazy bastard.

How do you turn a profit if it's cheap and they give you all this?

Richard Branson is awesome in every way, the coolest billionaire ever.

[QUOTE=tasty-man;16608961]Knew someone would make a pun about virgins[/QUOTE] It wasn't a pun, thats exactly what I thought..

Is that a new 737? I'm pretty sure that all of them have those now. I flew on Delta quiet a few times and they had those. If you think that's great try flying first class on an A330. They have screens slightly bigger than those with about 70 movies for free :dance: I also heard Richard flys coach on his own airplanes which is rather hilarious

The title is wrong, I believe the correct grammatical wording is "Virgin America is the best plane I've ever flown/rode on"

I want a seat like that in my home

I like Porter and Air Canada the most. Porter is very classy and AC has those screens in the seats, good food, and quiet planes compared to some other flights I've been on which seem to be filled with screaming babies.

Most Airliners have services like this now. Delta has a really good one, where everything is free except the HBO TV shows. Which is just fine. Air France has also had this for a while. But the worst one of them all, is American Airlines. They have actual times for the movie. For example every ten minutes a new showing begins. This means that if you don't join in at the exact time you miss out. You also can't pause and rewind. It isn't very "On Demand" if you ask me. This is all of course, flying coach. Business obviously is much better.

jet blue is still my favorite, and they have those little screen things too. you just can't play games but who wants to play games when you can sleep or watch movies. and if you really need games just bring your laptop

A+ post, and that looks like one hell of a ride. Looks mighty futuristic when compared to the crappy couple of TVs from the mid-90s I usually have.

Southwest is the Ghetto Airline now. They're cheap as fuck, really nice, but they don't have any cool gadgetur thengus. :frown:
