Virgin Atlantic Airways

Virgin Atlantic is delighted to announce that it is offering passengers a traditional roast every Sunday on all flights departing the UK. Passengers travelling from the UK in Premium Economy and Economy will be offered roast chicken as one of the three choices for their main meal followed by a traditional crumble for dessert.

Liselle Simmonds, Catering Development Executive for Virgin Atlantic commented:

�We are very proud to offer passengers travelling on a Sunday a traditional roast dinner to make them feel at home! This will mean that our passengers will not have to go without a Sunday roast again when travelling to different places around the world!

�We try to offer our economy passengers a wide variety of different cuisines from around the world to enjoy during their flight, including Italian, Thai and Indian as well as traditional English dishes such as bangers and mash. Our passengers also love it when the cabin crew offer ice creams during the inflight movies.�
