Virgin australia new Business class

[Daniel M]

Who ever said (particularly VA) will keep the A330 only flying domestically ?

[Zac M]

No one, I only said that for domestic flying it's overkill.

every one both products are great they are a dead heat but the virgin design is just a leather more exotic version of the new Cathay pacific business class.

we know the virgin business will be good as Cathay has it and people that travel on Cathay like this seat.

Qantas business needed time to get feedback as it is new design started from scratch

well done to both airlines

can not wait to experience this two great seats

I remember reading -XFJ was picked up by VA as a cancelled order from another airline (possibly an Indian airline...Kingfisher?? maybe) and as a result has crew rest area etc unlike their other factory A332's.

Hats off to VA for actually getting their new product in the air quickly without spruiking about it for well over 12 months before the first A330 even goes in for refit and their A332's offer a consistent Y product.

XFJ is a new build...it may have been a kingfisher slot however it's built to their specifications

Seems as if the new seat has hit a few snags. http://blogs.crikey.com.au/planetalk...roblem-or-two/

Zodiac have their own issues:

I would expect a few slipping delivery dates for new builds in the near future.
