Virgin Atlantic is introducing its new Spring/Summer menu with a range of dishes across all cabins.
Upper Class customers can expect new additions including vegetarian poke bowl, lobster and crab tortellini, and a classic Pimms summer pudding. The airline has also introduced an extra bites menu that includes a club sandwich, an aloo tikki, and a Northern Bloc ice cream in strawberries and cream flavour.
In addition to this, Upper Class customers can now enjoy a chilled glass of Whispering Angel rosé wine from Côtes de Provence that has evocative grapefruit and citrus flavours. They will also be served Teapigs peach iced tea, which is a refreshing blend of juicy peach and black tea.
Premium customers can choose between spinach and ricotta tortellini with sage butter sauce and roasted pumpkin or chicken pie with caper panko crumb. For dessert, they can order a passionfruit and mango cheesecake garnished with coconut.
During the Easter bank holiday weekend, all cabins on flights departing the UK for the US and Caribbean will be served Cocoba chocolate lollies.
On May 6th, customers in Upper Class will be welcomed with a mini bottle of Lanson Black Label champagne to mark the King's Coronation. From May 6th-8th, customers in all cabins on flights departing the UK for the US and Caribbean will be treated to Joe & Seph’s Kings Coronation raspberry and white chocolate coated popcorn.
To honour King Charles, the airline will serve a special Mile High Tea in Upper Class and Premium over the weekend. The tea will include finger sandwiches with fillings of dill cream cheese and roasted peppers, cheddar cheese, pickle and mixed leaf, and vegetarian coronation chickpea. The sweet treats include a warm scone with clotted cream and strawberry jam, and a trio of mini patisseries.
Finally, Virgin Atlantic has announced a fresh food partnership with Full Circle Farms for its London Heathrow Clubhouse. The farm will provide a variety of fruits, vegetables, and herbs with small-scale, regenerative farming processes to ensure no pesticides or herbicides are used. The farm is run by community volunteers who use it as therapy, ranging from those with autism gaining their farming qualifications to veterans with PTSD prescribed farm work by their doctors. The Clubhouse will have Full Circle fresh produce integrated by July.
