Slightly regretting that decision as things stand, especially as the Virgin lounge experience is much better. Still keeping my fingers crossed that we might strike lucky and end up with CS, but not holding my breath all the same.
It’s the first time flying business for my wife and kids, whilst I’ve done it countless times, so I’ll be more disappointed for them if anything. Still, it’s the epitome of a first world problem so I’ll not let myself lose any sleep over it.
Until BA finds it within itself to either 1) accelerate the CS rollout or 2) allow for customers to make changes based on equipment changes, then this is a reason to book VS over BA IMO. Virgin’s UCS is better than UC but not by the same margin as CS over CW.
