Seats. Economy seats are approximately 17 inches wide with pitch up to 31 inches. Delight seats feature extra legroom with up to 34 inches of pitch.

Virgin Atlantic's Economy Delight is a premium-economy-lite offering that provides several tangible benefits over the "Economy Classic" experience. The most significant physical difference is the extra legroom: Delight seats offer a 34-inch seat pitch, compared to the 31-inch pitch in Classic. This extra 3 inches can make a massive difference in comfort on long-haul transoceanic flights. Beyond the seat, Economy Delight passengers receive priority check-in and priority boarding, which ensures you are among the first to secure overhead bin space for your carry-on. You also get to select your seat for free at any time after booking, whereas Classic passengers may have to wait until 24 hours before departure or pay a fee. Both classes receive the same complimentary meals, drinks, and inflight entertainment. For travelers who aren't ready to pay the full price for the "Premium" cabin (which features a physically wider seat), Economy Delight is a strategic middle ground that combines standard economy service with significantly better legroom and a more seamless airport experience.
