Virgin Atlantic or Continental??

I am using my Continental frequent flyer miles to get my fiance & I to Europe in the fall-- we'll be flying into London and out of Paris. For the London leg of the trip, we have a choice between Continental and Virgin Atlantic. Does anyone prefer one airline over the other?? Are there any differences in service & amenities in coach class?? Any thoughts would be appreciated. <BR> <BR>Thanks, <BR> <BR>Kim

Virgin without question. I regularly fly with Virgin and have always been happy. I flew Continenal recently and they were not as good. <BR> <BR>I think I am right in saying that they still have a code share agreement, which may mean that you can use your CO flyer miles but actually fly with Virgin. Check it out. <BR> <BR>Mike

VIRIGIN ALL THE WAY!! The Virgin flight I took to London was the best flight I've ever been on. Though coach quarters are still a bit cramped, the service and amenities are far better than any others I've ever encountered. You get a nice little "pack" of overnight stuff, and they even give you ice cream and candy! I would never fly to London on any other airline.

I agree with VIRGIN !! Have had really great experiences with them. Given a choice, I would choose them every time.

My boyfriend and I fly back and forth between here and England about every six weeks and do ANYTHING we can to ALWAYS fly Virgin. We have flown on other airlines such as British Airways, KLM, IcelandAir, US Airways - Virgin is always by far the best!!!!

Virgin, for sure. My husband and daughter insisted we take Virgin for our trip this summer.
