Virgin Atlantic

Inbound or outbound flight? Virgin Atlantic Upper Class has a separate kit for each.

The bags are made from rPET, a sustainable material made from crushed plastic bottles. The fabric is dark grey (reminiscent of the best Saville-Row suit) with a black-cherry silk lining and cherry-red stitching.

Continuing the recycled theme, the outbound bag doubles up as a soft tablet or e-reader case to use on future flights. On inbound flights, the kit takes the form of a travel wallet.

 

What do you get?

The Outbound Kit is tablet sized, charcoal grey with black-cherry stitching and a snazzy, silk lining (branded attractively as Virgin Atlantic Upper Class).

  • Socks
  • Pen
  • Toothbrush
  • Eye mask
  • Tissues

  • A paper envelope for Change for Children

  • Change for Children envelope
