Default Virgin Blue Premium Economy Update

As of the 1st of December DJ PE guests will be getting food and drink and live2air as part fo the ticket price.

IMO should have been that way from the start.

That is good to hear. I think they should be able to pick up business with this.

So now for less than the QF fully flex fare, you can get a better seat, more legroom, more choice in catering, live TV and more than likely more FF points!

Will this arrangement also apply to high tier Velocity members? Like British Midland (sorry bmi) does.

I think it only applies to Premium Economy. Not the main cabin like BMI. Though I presume that is something they can look at down the track.

Just checked Virgin's website but nothing on it about everything is included when you book Premium Economy

Feel free to call me a cynic, but how much will the PE fares be increased as a result?

I don't think they will increase. They need to make the product successful first. It won't cost them much to give some one a beer and a ceaser wrap.... I'd say they'd make more money form you if you had upgraded and paid the PE fare, than sat down the back and bought the beer and ceaser wrap seperately.
