You put London on your vision board and now it’s t-minus 10 hours until you’re staring Big Ben in the face. Did you have the money for it? No. Did you even have the vacation time for it? No. But you kept true to your delusions, practiced the power of positivity, and manifested pure magic.
Some people tell you to come back down to earth, to stop being so daydreamy, but when you LIVE like you’re 40,000 feet in the air there's no point in trying to keep your head out of the clouds.
Keep Your
Head in the Clouds
Virgin Atlantic
For one time only, Virgin is going to become a Thursday meetup spot. The first 100 people will be able to register for a once-in-a-lifetime, out-of-this-world, beyond-your-wildest-fantasy, first class first date flight from NYC to London. Registration opens on Monday, giving our lucky users four days to get everything ready for take off.
Users will have access to the first class and premium class cabins (no assigned seating here, this is a singles mixer after all) as well as the inflight bar and lounge areas. Not feeling the person you’re seated next to? When the seatbelt sign turns off feel free to get up and move about the cabin. Upon arrival, Thursday daters will be given a hotel voucher for the weekend, and if you leave paired up, the first date on the ground is on us!

Virgin x Thursday

Picture this (and we know you can because we know you have) you find your seat, get settled in, pop on your headphones and start scrolling while everyone else boards when out of the corner of your eye you glimpse an impeccably dressed body stretch up to put their carry on away. You look up to see who your seat-mate is and oh my god… It’s Harry Styles! Your wildest airplane fantasy comes to fruition.
No, of course it isn’t because he doesn’t fly commercial and he certainly doesn’t fly coach. But with Virgin's new In Flight Fantasies you can use your time in the middle seat to walk with Harry through a romantic weekend in London, follow Frank Sinatra (thanks AI) through the ins and outs of Vegas, or just zone out and manifest with a guided meditation courtesy of Florence Pugh.

Disco Airport Lounges
Virgin knows that part of keeping your head in the clouds means letting yourself always be surprised when the outrageous happens. So we’re turning our airport lounges into secret discos. Seemingly typical from the outside once inside guests can come and unwind with bottle service in our plush quiet zones, get their exercise in before their flight on the light up dance floor, and find themselves totally immersed in the fabulous and fantastically unexpected.
Keep your head in the clouds rave

Harkening back to their roots in music, Virgin is hosting a Cloud Rave inside the Sphere in Las Vegas. The inside display will be a beautiful and vivid sky changing from dawn to dusk throughout the evening as clouds of bubbles and confetti shower party-goers. The outside display, a brilliant and glittering disco ball of course.
