Virgin rocks - the personal entertainment center is great, the food is great (yes, I said great) and the FAs are very kind, helpful - the way it should be. And they give great goodie kits - love the eyeshades!

Without doubt go for the Virgin flight, they knock spots off CO.

Another tip you might use. You can take a day trip to Windsor Palace by train and tour the site. Quite impressive. Would recommend the tape narrated self tour. Also go to at least one play. London is only place I have been where you may "book" (reserve) a drink for intermission, pay ahead-thus avoiding the rush, and no one would think of stealing your drink. Saves time for conversation, potty(loo) etc.
