A Virgin Atlantic Airways A330 flew from London to New York City this spring carrying a few passengers in a mile-high seat of luxury.
Virgin is a company that prides itself on being on the cutting edge. One need only have a passing familiarity with Virgin Galactic to know this. Such inventiveness and high standards are found through Richard Branson's sprawling, eclectic empire.
Though the A330 airbus is a fairly standard model as far as travel goes, this particular jet is anything but common. It features a sleek, spacey and luxurious bar for passengers that enjoy the finer things in life.
Virgin commissioned the design studio VW + BS to create the flying sky-bar and they did not disappoint. Curving walls flow throughout the lounge in a magenta-clad celebration of technology and luxury. This is a few steps above coach.
