The airline flies its first Boeing Co. (BA) 787 to the Atlanta base of U.S. shareholder Delta Air Lines Inc. (DAL) today, with the cabin pounding to live music from a synthesizer-wielding dance duo. And guess who was on that flight to dance to the music and enjoy the company of other passengers including the CEO of Virgin Atlantic himself, Craig Kreeger, Bellanaija!
Kreeger said he is convinced the $5 billion Dreamliner fleet will establish new service standards in the world's busiest market for premium travel.
The in-flight bar, upper class seats and premium economy cabin as well as the in-flight entertainment system are all made according to Virgin specifications, with the custom lighting options able to replicate the ambiance of a restaurant or time of the day, said Philip Maher, Virgin's director of aircraft operations.
The next planes to be delivered will be used on routes to Washington and New York's John F. Kennedy airport, as well as to Newark.
