Inviting travelers to jump into bed with them, Virgin Atlantic use Sydney International Airport as its stage, showcasing why they're the airline that's got "it".While they wait to board other carriers at Sydney International Departures, travellers are treated to a tantalising taste of what it's like to fly Upper Class with Virgin Atlantic, for the month of January.
After walking through immigration and clearing customs, travellers are warmly greeted by Virgin Atlantic Cabin Crew and encouraged to lie back and try their award winning fully flat bed, take a seat at their trademark on-board bar and jump into the back of the Virgin Atlantic London Taxi to enter a competition to win a trip for two to London.
Virgin Atlantic Marketing Manager Margy Vary says;"Australians love their travel and are crying out for a better way to fly. Research shows that once you've flown Virgin Atlantic you are very likely to fly us again. Bringing the Upper Class experience to Sydney Airport gives passengers who have never travelled with Virgin Atlantic a chance to get a true sense of what they'd experience. We're putting ourselves out there for people to try before they buy. And we're confident that one taste will get them hooked! "
