After a long haul 'red eye' flight, we opted to travel First Class back t the north of England. The Virgin First Class Lounge at Kings Cross is an island of tranquility on the first floor, overlooking the hustle and bustle of the platforms below. Complimentary hot, cold and alcoholic drinks along with an abundant supply of newspapers help to pass an hour or so as we waited for our train. The 'designer' furniture is not the most comfortable, I guess it was chosen more for its looks than its practicality. The First Class fare includes a light meal and drinks on the journey. The meal is well cooked and served promptly. Overall, an excellent experience and worth the extra fare.
