I booked the trip for wifey and me using 75,000 Virgin Atlantic points and 5.60 USD each. This was a pretty good deal for TATL in business class and I was hopeful that it might be in one of their new A330-900s. But, the A350 we got is a great plane was plenty good enough.

Boarding was a little chaotic, to say the least. There was some issue with the readers at the gate that required a manual override of some sort for each passenger. Didn't seem like a big deal but it created a little Eddy current of sorts where we had to double back to another agent before returning to have the BP rescanned. I chocked it up to gremlins but a 30 or so man behind me was loosing his mind. I snickered a little when he proclaimed his right to bypass the nonsense since he paid at least 10 times the rest of us presumably coach passengers.

By the time we boarded, the business cabin was about half full. I apologize but I did not take any photos.
